Skygazers have been treated to another spectacular display of the Northern Lights.

Increased solar activity meant that people in several countries, including Ireland, had the chance of catching the colourful phenomenon overnight.

The celestial display of the aurora borealis is caused by eruptions on the surface of the Sun and recent activity has been unexpectedly strong.
