I woke up at 2.30am for work this morning. That was not fun, but during my short walk I was greeted by the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights)! Pretty nice suprise, it certainly made being up a lot more pleasurable! It wasn't exactly 'Larus'-esque, but must have been quite strong to be seen through the towns lights.

Sorry, I had just had to brag about my very fortunate circumstances!

Very cool! Did you get some shots?

Nope unfortunately I was already on my way, all I had with me was my goofy reflective vest (pretty necessary here at 2.30am when walking!)! Maybe next time though!

Isnt it in the DPC TOS that you have to carry some kind of camera with you at all times and if you are caught without then Art someone is sent in to burn your village?

Nice way to start a far-too-early day :)
I don't know what it is about the aurora but I always (the VERY few times I've seen any)
feel very small....

I have a picture from last year (before I was living here), but I was on the way back from shooting a performance- no tripod, so I had to use my girlfriends head... you can imagine how that turned out!
