Northern Light hunting

Posted by chrislintott in Uncategorized

I know, long time no post. All I can do is say sorry and move on! I’ve still got a post from California on the way, but this weekend I joined Omega Holidays on one of their trips to see the Northern lights. Unlike those I’ve done before, involving turning all the lights off and flying round in circles, this was a weekend trip to Finland (piggybacked on a trip to take kids to see Santa). The display was intriguing – changing curtains of light that began indistinctly and then brightened, remaining low down but remaining an erie prescence. A photo of the display taken by Ian Morison is available is available here, and as proof that I really do get to Finland I offer the following:
