Ah, what makes these clouds special is how infrequent they can be seen. I mean, sometimes they are considered to be seen more frequently during our summers around times on increased meteor activity.
The most special of all the clouds, because you hardly get to see them!

I like these type of clouds, they will never rain on you . :lol:
You can spend thousands of euros on astro equipment and its the simple handheld shot that wins out.

Interesting that all the above images were (I think) all taken on the one night, of the same display. So for completeness here is the same night as seen from Kerry.
This was taken on 35mm film and is a panorama of 3 images through a 28mm lens. It spans about 110degrees of the north West horizon!

Flicking back and forth quickly, I can see similar features between your image (Michael) and mine. Its very interesting to see what a slight differance in latitude makes. :shock:
