Tried Alaska a few years back. Then Alberta… Both no luck… Finally today in Tromsø… waited 5 hours and all meh sightings… Then suddenly in a matter of minutes… Full LSD rave sky party!
Ooh, beautiful!
Maybe you can crosspost to [email protected] as well :)
That’s awesome thank you for going through all that to get this shot. And thank you for sharing.
Just FYI, I’m not OP :)
How do I cross post? Or just post again there?
Lemmy doesn’t have great crosspost support right now, you can just repost there
Stunning!
I was in Finland a couple weeks ago, and see them but they weren’t bright at all. You could barely see them with a camera. And then a couple of days later, our taxi driver told us that the night before was the brightest most colorful auroras he had seen :( and it was possible for us to see them from our hotel but we didn’t know about them.
seems so peaceful
So happy for you! I was in Alaska and Iceland, unfortunately no northern lights to be seen. Feels like luck of the draw. I’ll be so ecstatic when it finally happens!
It’s a waiting game … It was very beloe average according to our guide… we just wanted and waited… and then. Boom! Magic show for 5 minutes…then back to meh.
Nice. Went hiking yesterday and didn’t see anything. But this was maybe later at night?
This was around midnight? Maybe 11:30 pm? It was so dynamic… this happened in a matter of 2 minutes…then lasted for 5 and disappeared…
Ah. We were at the parking about 22:50 :) I’m glad you got to enjoy the aurora.
I’ve seen northern lights in Oslo, but they’ve never been this vibrant
Gratz!! I am planning to this with my son this year. I had it all planned out a few years ago and then COVID hit. I’m also primarily Norwegian and want to see the homeland.
It’s a beautiful country and people… I will be coming back for sure… everything so far has been lovely!
lucky you
