Details:
It was a clear evening and I was still able to find Comet Altas with binoculars in the twilight. Certainly dimmer than a few days previously but still visible with the unaided eye, just. After taking a few shots, I noticed in the camera review screen there was a red glow across the horizon that wasn't visible otherwise. I thought it might have the fading twilight so I quite surprised on closer inspection to see rays visible and I had unexpectantly captured the comet and an aurora! These were taken on 2nd Feb UTC 10:00
