A spectacular display of bright green lit up the sky in Nairn, Highland on Halloween night

ByHelen WillettsLead Weather Presenter

Stargazers around the UK were treated to the vivid colours of the aurora borealis on Saturday night.

As cloud and rain on the weather front cleared southwards, parts of Scotland and Northern Ireland were perfectly placed to catch the display.

The eerie glow provided a fitting finale to spookiest night of the year, delighting skywatchers and photographers alike.
