Spectacular sights as the Northern Lights appear over Ceredigion

SPECTACULAR images have been captured of the Northern Lights in the skies above Ceredigion.

The images, which show the greens and reds of the Aurora Borealis — better know as the Northern Lights — as seen from Devil’s Bridge, overlooking the Rheidol Valley, were captured on Sunday evening by Les Fry of Elan Valley Astronomy.

The elusive natural phenomenon occurs when electrically-charged particles from the Sun enter the Earth’s atmosphere, and is not usually visible from Wales.
