During the CIR-impact on February 14-15, 2026, there was an instance of what looked like RAGDA to the south. A few images from local time 22:31 to 22:36 (or 21:31 to 21:36 UTC, if you wish). Following the RAGDA phenomenon a SAR-arc appeared, it lingered on, here photographed at local time 23:00 (UTC 22:00).
Details: Canon 650D, fisheye lens.

Nice colorful auroral curtains over the valley on February 10, 2026. Here are a few images with timestamps in UTC. Details: Canon 650D, 8mm fisheye lens. Iso: 1600
An intense auroral storm. Unfortunately, as seen from this location (Ørsta, Norway) interfered by clouds. Details: Canon 650D/RP and fisheye lenses. Please, find time on images.
Auroral Dunes. On 10 January 2026, around 19:55 local time (18:55 UTC) and for approximately 16 minutes, I observed a thin, diffuse green aurora showing clear horizontal ripple‑like structures. Thin clouds were present in the foreground and interfered at times, making interpretation more challenging both visually and photographically. Despite the cloud interference, the structures remained stable across several exposures — 20:01, 20:04, and 20:07 local time (19:01, 19:04, 19:07 UTC) — and the pattern is consistent with previously documented auroral dunes. Details: Canon 650D, 8mm fisheye-lens, Iso:1600, various exposure times.

Auroral lights in the sky on the night of January 8-9, 2026. Here are a few images of the display. Photographed using a frozen Canon 650D, and an 8mm fisheye lens.
A few images of the Northern lights taken on (a cold (-20 degrees C)) night of January 7-8, 2026. An auroral band developed in the north at around midnight local time. My first observation of the aurora this year. Please, find images enclosed with time in UTC. Details: Canon 650D, 8mm fisheye-lens, Iso:1600, various exposure times

M42 photographed on December 22, 2025 at 01.40 UTC.
There were northern lights in the sky. But difficult to photograph due to a bright moon and clouds. Here are some pictures of the northern lights this evening. Most interesting was an east-west oriented arc/band that endured for about 25 minutes. Enhanced a bit because of the above mentioned. Location: Ørsta, Norway. Photo details: Canon 650D, 8mm fisheye-lens
There was a Red Arc lingering in the western sky from about 20:38 – 21:02 UTC. It was followed by a beautiful display of aurora corona.
Beautiful aurora corona overhead. These are most commonly seen in Northern-Norway, but these were observed from Ørsta, Norway (62nd Lat. N). Details: Canon 650D, 8mm fisheye-lens.
