Welcome to this week’s #MySundaySnapshot post, which is part of a snap-sharing-blog-linky series that you are very welcome to join. Click here for further information and guidelines upon this linky should you wish to take part.
As a child, I always wanted to see the Northern Lights but it wasn’t really something that I had much chance of seeing here in the North West. It seems that is no longer the case here in the UK, as 2024 has proved to be quite the year for solar flares and as a result, some spectacular shows in the skies.
Here’s a shot I snapped of my son enjoying the show for himself earlier this week. It’s a little blurry but I’m so glad I captured the moment.
Thanks for reading my #MySundaySnapshot post, I look forward to catching up and sharing your #MySundaySnapshot pictures either through your own posts, social media shares or comments upon this post.

That’s incredible! The Northern Lights are so beautiful.
Wow! That was an amazing photo! I was surprised (and pleased!) to be able to capture it through my phone, but it was nowhere as vivid as that for me and I certainly couldn’t see it with the naked eye.
Nice one you are one up on me I have yet to witness them
