The Lights of Mann – Aurora Borealis Presentation Pack

Four vibrant and eye-catching pages brimming with information about the stunning phenomenon of the aurora borealis, complemented by extra images contributed by the public. The stamps feature remarkable photography and are elegantly displayed on a black mount inside the folder, which beautifully accentuates these six colourful stamps.

The Stamps

• Castletown Beach (85p): A designated Dark Sky Discovery site, this atmospheric photograph combines the northern lights, the moon across the tide and the groynes of the beach.
• Bradda Head (85p): One of the most captured views of the Isle of Man, looking out from Port Erin beach to Bradda Head this image shares pink hues photographed during a spectacular display of the aurora.
• Groudle Tram Tracks (£1.60): An instantly recognisable silhouette to any local, tourist or transport enthusiast, this image captures the aurora alongside the shadows of the Manx Electric Railway traction poles. This particular image is captured at the Groudle Glen section of the railway.
• Point of Ayre (£2.31): The northernmost tip of the Isle of Man, the Point of Ayre is regarded as the best area on the Island to view the aurora. The lighthouse pictured is useful to those wishing to see the lights as it marks dead north and indicates where best to look.
• Peel Castle (£2.31): The elevated view from Corrin’s Folly opposite Peel Castle provides a great vantage point to view the northern lights over one of the Island’s most historic and picturesque sites.
• Kirk Michael (£2.72): Located along the north-east coast of the Island, Kirk Michael is a popular area to view the aurora. This image shows the shadow of the rugged coastline with the lights of Peel in the distance, all beneath a sky of pink and green light.
