Those are lovely images guys!!. John, that first image is great, such rich colours and great structure.  Smiley

I observed the same display until 03.00 BSTalso. Average brightness type 3 with enhancements to type 3.5. Approx 30 deg high and + 80 deg long from NW to W of N. Electric blue colours, green, and orange were seen along with the classic white and silver. Complex structures present - bands, veil, waves/heringbone, lacunosus holes, knots, and whirls. A very high quality display for early June!!

To save time I have added my images to this link on my website...(900 pixels wide)

Amazing what the difference in latitude can do Brian from our different latitudes. Keep watch tonight for more.
