Nature’s greatest light show captured from the city
The Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, is a natural light display predominantly seen in high-latitude regions around the Arctic Circle. It occurs when charged particles from the sun interact with Earth’s magnetic field, creating colorful bands, curtains, or arcs of light in the sky. The colors are typically green, pink, red, blue, or purple, depending on the type of gas particles being excited. It’s a breathtaking phenomenon often sought after by travelers and photographers.
