I'm making a conscious effort this year to wean myself off Twitter. You will still be able to find me in some other places. My website: mathewbrowne.co.uk Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/mathew… PhotoHound: photohound.co/member/mathewb…

(I only mention those because the jury's still out on whether I'll persevere with Meta's products!) My account will remain open, but I will not be checking DMs or replies frequently. For any enquiries, please send a message via my website, email, phone or carrier pigeon. ✌️

@Jones8Pamela The best of it was around 6pm but these were 8 to 9pm

@mathewbrowne @visitwales @NationCymru @cadwwales @photohound @BBCWalesNews @ITVWales @SonyAlpha @ViltroxOfficial @Luminar_Neo @Benro_UK Stunningly beautiful Mathew - what time was it? I went up Betws mountain but did not see any colours!

2025 has started with a bang as the #NorthernLights made an appearance here in Wales. Tonight I went for a little photo expedition taking in Dryslwyn Castle, the Tywi river and Paxton's Tower. #aurora #astrophotography #spacewx #thephotohour

@Teresacooper It's a Sony A7RIV but honestly most modern smartphones with a decent night mode are sufficient to get it captured

@mathewbrowne @visitwales @NationCymru @cadwwales @photohound @BBCWalesNews @ITVWales @SonyAlpha @ViltroxOfficial @Luminar_Neo @Benro_UK What camera do you use?

@jowlymonster Borderline needing to remortgage I think😂

@mathewbrowne Badly for you..?

A few more from around Shinjuku at dusk. Can you spot Godzilla...? :)

@Nick_Pettigrew Had a bit of luck lately with the aurora but overall I think it's this one. Not the recent comet but the last big one in 2020. x.com/mathewbrowne/s…

Five years ago today I took the best photo I’ll probably ever take. I like good photos and have a four hour bus journey shortly so need entertaining. Feel free to reply with the best photo you ever took. Accompanying description also welcome.

@PixsyHQ Hi, just a heads up that Instagram syncing isn't working at the moment. If this is a known issue and there's an expected fix on the way please let me know (to save uploading my inventory manually)

As it's November 5th, here's a throwback to one of my best fireworks photos🎆 This is Kumano fireworks festival in Japan, photographed this summer aboard the Diamond Princess ship This is not AI or Photoshop - this is a single 5-second exposure during the crescendo of the show!

A photograph from the famous aurora display of October 10-11 2024. This is captured at Pentre Ifan, a neolithic burial chamber that is believed to have stood on this site for over 5,000 years. #northernlights #auroraborealis #thephotohour

My son observing #CometATLAS last night through his toy telescope here in west Wales. He's a lucky boy to see the northern lights AND a comet within a week of each other! #Comet #Astronomy #TsuchinshanATLAS #cometa #CometC2023A3 #Tsuchinshan #C2023A3 #FollowTheComet

@mzdt @TamithaSkov Give these a look pal @_SpaceWeather_ @TweetAurora

The old church at Mwnt is one of my favourite places for night sky photography and when I saw that amazing northern lights forecast last week I knew I had to head to the Ceredigion coast to try to capture it. #northernlights #auroraborealis

A feature nobody wants or needs

Though I spent most of Thursday night in Ceredigion, I made a pit stop in Carmarthen, to see if the #northernlights were visible. It's a challenging photo due to light pollution and fog rolling in over the Tywi river, but on camera, a faint green #aurora was still visible.

@plasmankado Sure 😊

@mathewbrowne Hello, It's very beautiful!! I'm a plasma physicist in Kyoto, Japan. Can I show it in my lecture/seminar on plasma or spectroscopy with (of course) an appropriate credit? It's only an educational purpose and not for commercial use.

A little timelapse showing Llangrannog absolutely kicking off last night #auroraborealis #northernlights

Hope you enjoy these timelapses showing last nights EPIC northern lights display over Wales. Did you see it? 📌 Mwnt, Llangrannog, Dryslwyn Castle #astrophotography #aurora #auroraborealis #northernlights @TamithaSkov @TweetAurora @Luminar_Neo @BBCWalesNews @ProfBrianCox

A timelapse of @NASA's Advanced Composite Solar Sail System (#ACS3) travelling overhead tonight. It appears to be wobbling / tumbling through space, hence the light reflected back to us on earth comes and goes. #solarsail #space #astrophotography #astronomy #NASA #spacecraft
