'Neath Clouds And Northern Lights

On a windy February night, we waited for the skies to clear and the show to begin.
The farm buildings of Grenivík provided some small ground level lights, while the stars danced a duet with the #aurora. Even the approaching snow clouds couldn't hide the beauty completely.

Ditched

Sometimes, the #aurora can take you by surprise.

We'd been sitting in a safe spot for hours, waiting for the chance of a display. The KP forecast was dropping, the air was freezing and it was getting towards midnight so we decided to head back to the hotel in Akureyri, northern #Iceland.

Halfway down the mountain, the sky started to dance. Which is how we came to be photographing the #NorthernLights from a roadside ditch!
