17 june: NLC with thunderstorm in the foreground

Yesterday evening I watched a thunderstorm in the NNW (at a distance of about 80 km according to radar). I tried lightning-photography to capture a so called "bolt from the blue". This didn't work out, since all lightning was IC (intra-cloud).
However, I was a bit suprised to see NLC in the NW for about 20 minutes (time was between 19:40 and 20:00 UTC). So I could make nice captures of a distant thunderstorm with NLC:

Hi,

Interesting images! I caught this one too and was, at times, observing under rain!

Good to see your pictures, Menno! So the NLCs can be seen now at our latitude. Hope we'll get clear sky tonight.
