Paul, who has lived in York all his life and runs a tattoo studio in Osbaldwick, was out at about from about 9.30pm and into the small hours of this morning and spotted the light show low in the sky.
He said: "The Northern Lights started very early last night, my shot of the lone tree was taken near Castle Howard at 9.25pm where I stayed photographing a powerful Aurora show non stop until midnight.
"Then I headed back to York and set up again near and York outer bypass A64 at 1am when it went absolutely crazy, definitely one of strongest Aurora shows I have seen at York."
The lights, or Aurora Borealis, appear when atoms in the Earth's high-altitude atmosphere collide with energetic charged particles from the sun.
