Details:
We might not have auroras, but Harleston, Norfolk, has some of the most varied and spectacular skyscapes in the UK, which we record behind a special tree. Last night as the solid grey cloud drifted away at dusk, the sun glanced under a stream of cloud on the horizon shining upwards to pick out in strong colour a small mammatus cloud breeding ground. You can see the bulbous pouches of cloud above the tree.
Maybe we should issue a challenge as to who considers themselves to be the sky capital of the UK/Europe/World. Lying in a zone between the Altlantic air streams and Continental Europe Air masses this area near the Norofolk coast would have a bit of a claim to make.
Canon EOS6D 28-105mm (58mm) 1/80th f.5 100ISO
