Reply to comment by SagariKatu in Budir / Iceland [1280x1920] [OC] by Wimair

I recently went to see them. Awesome. But honestly, the pictures are often times better because the exposure times can be tweaked and are more sensitive than the human eye. Don't get me wrong, the lights are beautiful, but I was also shocked how even my cell phone picked up the lights more dramatically than my eyes.

True, but to be honest: if you are under clear skies when an bigger solar wind hits earth it’s even more magic than on any photo or video because the sky is just dancing all above you. It’s truly magical, but also I was lucky enough two times to be on Iceland or in Norway when a big solar storm hits our atmosphere 🙂
