KEEN photographer Kieran Delaney took these photos last night (March 23) of the Northern Lights over York.

Kieran is 24 and lives in Heworth. He works as a photographer and decorator and is a member of The Press Camera Club.

He said: "Oh my word! It's a dream come true.

"The Northern Lights were highly visible last night over York. These were taken near my house."

Kieran studied photography at All Saints sixth form for two years and says he's always had a passion for photography, taking pictures on his phone until eventually he was treated to a DSLR camera as a birthday present.

"Taking up photography for me was mainly because I loved the idea of documenting the things we see and being able to capture that forever," he said.
