On Thursdsay evening and the early hours of yesterday morning Wales was treated to one of the most spectacular displays in the night sky the country had ever seen.

The Northern Lights were clearly visible across the whole of Wales, and many photographs were captured of the stunning Aurora Borealis.

And while many images were posted of the iridescent natural phenomena, Mathew Browne – an astrophotography specialist went one better and compiled an incredible timelapse of the Northern Lights across west Wales.

His video from Mwnt and Llangranog in Ceredigion and Dryslwyn Castle in Carmarthenshire wowed users on X (formerly Twitter)

I’m sure you’ll agree, it’s absolutely dazzling.
