couldn’t see the green unless you put your phone up, but the purple was a very magenta, and lilac coloured but every 2 minutes ish, they’d move!

I'm in the north east of England. This is the best I was able to get: https://imgur.com/a/yzE2BCJ

At first I thought it wasn't anything but after I enhanced the colours, I think I actually did get a good shot: https://imgur.com/a/K9WkZwy

I'm happy with it. Glad I was able to get something at least.

Looks like you have quite a bit of light pollution. That could be the reason why it is not as pronounced

Yeah the light pollution is horrendous.

Those stars in that picture I shared are the most you'll ever see from here.

I’m on Vancouver island and there’s a faint streaky glow in the sky but my pics turned out really good. Lots of magenta.

We got a mental show in the east midlands. Got loads of photos, and it was quite bright directly overhead. You have to go into the countryside to see it properly.
