Noctilucent clouds are rare enough anywhere, but catching them from Ballingeary was something I hadn't expected. These are the highest clouds in Earth's atmosphere, forming around 80 kilometres up, and they only become visible when the sun has dropped far enough below the horizon to leave the ground in darkness while still illuminating those ice crystals at the edge of space. The result is this extraordinary electric blue glow against the deep night sky.
The conifers and rolling hills here give a sense of scale that I find essential. Without that dark foreground, you'd lose the drama of how bright these clouds actually are. Stars visible above, the last trace of twilight below. I've been fascinated by these clouds for years, and the conditions needed to see them this far south in Ireland don't come around often!
