Hide AdMr Martin is a primary school supply teacher and says he has been encouraging his pupils to get out and try astrophotography because of how easy and cheap it is.
"All you need is a bit of patience, night mode on your iPhone and the correct night sky conditions,” he said.
The lights, also known as aurora borealis, were also strong across much of the country on Saturday night thanks to the clear skies.
They were previously seen over Hartlepool earlier this month, and also in September providing a stunning natural light show for residents and keen photographers.
Thanks to Edward for sharing these shots with us.
