Northern Lights return to the skies over Wanstead Flats

Local photographer Deepak Dembla recorded the Northern Lights over Wanstead Flats for the second time this year.

“This was a truly wonderful experience. I was out from 9pm until 3am. By the lake, it looked like paradise watching from the copse!” said Deepak, who first captured the phenomenon in May.

The sun is currently near the peak of its 11-year solar cycle, with high solar activity giving an increased chance of seeing the Northern Lights. The current peak is expected to last until mid-2025.
