My Bucket List Wish Comes True!

JUST back from Iceland and on the very LAST night of our Fabulous trip, THIS is what we experienced:
















Some look like duplicates but the sky is different in each one.  We had to stand perfectly still for 10 seconds each time while the photographer took the image.  Sounds easy but it's not!

Just a little info - You can't see the lights as vivid as these pics unless you take a photo with a 35mm camera that has very specific settings - NORMALLY - however there was a solar flare that created these most amazing lights called the Aurora Corona.  There were 360 degrees of lights, we could see the colors with our own eyes and at one point we saw them dancing in the sky!  On a scale of 1 to 10, this was and 11!  Our tour guide told us how very very lucky we were to experience this phenomena!  I can't even really describe how UNBELIEVABLE this was!

I'll come back with something I've made as soon as my feet touch the ground!
Thanks for stopping by!
