Memories of the Northern Lights
In The Land Of The Northern Lights from Ole Christian Salomonsen on Vimeo.
Many years ago I made a night crossing in my sailboat of northern Lake Huron with three friends. After midnight the North Lights appeared. First, they appeared low on the northern horizon. Then they spread along the horizon, heading east and west. As they moved along the horizon, they also extended farther and farther into the middle of the once dark, night sky above. When half the sky was claimed, the lights then conquered to the remaining half of the sky. At the height of the activity the shimmering, dancing, mostly green lights filled the sky. It was one of the most amazing sights I have ever witnessed.
For a window into that night, check out the embedded video.
I must thank Laura Arnold for tipping me off about this video via a Facebook link. Thank you, Laura.
