Northern Lights and glowing sea shots captured by photographer (www.bbc.co.uk)

He captured some stunning images of the Northern Lights above the south Wales valleys last month.

But for his latest shots of amazing natural phenomenon, photographer Lee McGrath did not need to look up at the sky.

Instead he stared down at the waves lapping the shores of Dunraven Bay, Vale of Glamorgan, where bioluminescent plankton were lighting the water an incredible electric blue.

Captured in the early hours of Friday, it is thought to be the first sighting of this magical occurrence in Wales in 2024 and the kind of shot which features highly on every photographer's bucket list.
