2023-04-01 Northern Lights
I was about to pack in for the night when the Northern Lights suddenly showed up unannounced, so I scrambled and pointed my camera in its general direction. Too bad about the trees, but oh well.

I've never actually seen the northern Lights before, being from southwestern Norway and all, so this was a real treat! It usually doesn't come this far south, but we're entering a period of high activity in the solar cycle, so we should expect more like this in the years to come!
