Since we've moved up here, there are periodic 'this weekend the northern lights will be visible' articles and general excitement. The first couple had me staying up late and going out into the cold, with nothing to show for it. So, in May when all the hype came out, I went to bed. Sadly, when I woke the next morning, everyone I knew had beautiful pictures of the sky! I was so sad. = (
Despite the potential for more later in the weekend, there were no more colorful skies.
Fast forward to early October, the warnings came out that the lights would appear right after sunset. I was excited that the time frame was before my bedtime and went out to look. I was greeted with darkness, but my phone captured some beautiful colors.
One of my facebook friends is more attuned to the meteorological world, and posted that another 'flare' was coming, so I went back out and could see pink without my phone!!!
With my phone, it was absolutely gorgeous!
