Stunning image of Aurora Borealis seen from the North York Moors near Whitby

The image, showing striking red hues, was taken by Astro Dog – aka Nicole Carr and Simon Scott – who run stargazing experiences in Dalby Forest and are keen Aurora chasers.

They said: “We captured a few photographs of the Aurora Borealis aka the Northern Lights from the North York Moors near Whitby early this morning and thought you might like to see one of them.

“This was captured at around 1.37am."
