Residents across Edinburgh and the Lothians had the opportunity to witness the Northern Lights on Saturday night, capturing stunning images of the celestial phenomenon. The Aurora Borealis was visible throughout the region, including areas from Linlithgow to Longniddry and Leith, as the prime viewing season from October to March began in the UK.
Many locals shared their photographs on social media, with images often taken in gardens or from the streets. Despite being captured with mobile phones, these images showcased the remarkable colours of the aurora.
The Met Office has indicated that sightings of the Northern Lights may continue in Scotland, contingent on clear skies, until Tuesday, October 13.
