dytkos 17,536 Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 Neighbours went up to Lapland or somewhere to see them, said even though it was a bit cloudy it was awesome. Cheers, D. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ken's Deputy 4,456 Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 That is my One regret. That I'll never get to see them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kanny 19,429 Posted March 2, 2021 Report Share Posted March 2, 2021 I've said before I think, we seen them every night when we were in Iceland it was solar maximum so 2011 i think and I have to say I was disappointed, what they don't tell you is the camera sees them a lot better than your eyes ever can also if you look at most footage of them its time lapsed to give it the impression that they are moving far quicker than they really are. Im glad I've seen them just so i know its no big deal lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Im glad I've seen them just so i know its no big deal lol We see them here quite often in winter, and mostly they can be pretty faint or dull and slow moving. Occasionally though they are really bright like on Ted's photos, and those are the nights they seem to move quicker across the sky. Been here 9 years and have only seen them really bright and dancing twice to give you an idea of frequency though.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 25,295 Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 I find a handful of magic mushrooms has a simular effect at a fraction of the price, plus a much wider range of colours 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
