First attempt at capturing the northern lights.
We went to Runswick Bay, did a few test shots and nothing doing so left camera snapping away as a couple of planes flew overhead. This series of 25 shots makes a small star trail.

Packed up & drove to Whitby (very poor phone signal in Runswick) so we could check any on-line updates and check the weather forecast. Wasn't looking good and my colleague called it a night as he had a long drive back to Durham.
So I decided well I'm up and there was enough sky showing for a star trail, so went onto the cliffs south of Whitby. Set the camera up, and left on continuous shooting and retired to the car.
Around 3 am, although very cloudy there was a light show dancing in the sky.
