The Northern Lights are the visual result of solar particles entering the earth’s magnetic field at high atmosphere, and ionising. Their intensity depends on the activity of the sun, and the acceleration speed of these particles.
They appear as dancing lights high in the sky and vary in color, usually being green, but occasionally also purple, red, pink, orange and blue. Their colors depend on the elements being ionized.
Solar activity is not regular, however; even if it is a dark, clear night, there could be absolutely no chance of seeing the auroras, no matter how far north you are. It also means that on a midsummer day, the sky could be alive with Northern Lights; they are simply obscured by the brightness of the sun. I try to capture an image of aurora borealis in the pendant.
