Possibly, that's the Shetland Is. These thigs seem to grow all over the place in the islands to the north of Scotland.  The rain on the peat and heather that makes them grow like cacti in the desert.  'Visual Match' (VM) suggests there are examples in Shetland, but using VM on Franks freshly taken photographs is the way to madness. You usually end up being directed to 'Facebook', which I don't understand, so don't do.  More to the point, how can we get what are aparently quite short shadows from the Sun in the same photograph as stars and the Aurora?  It must be a function of exposure time and lens angle.  If it weren't for the shortness of the shadows, I'd say the photograph was taken around 8AM local time in late winter/early spring.  They could be moonlight shadows of course.  DaveP
