Northern lights here are often enough and varied enough that
I can say that I saw them before I died. They are not like further
North where the great pictures are made, but some memorable life
moments were; 1) half of the sky full of white popping flashes like
a thousand paparazzi shooting each other, 2) a giant pink rosette of
concentric circles with the centre directly overhead looking down like the
biggest Jackson Perkins rose you ever saw, with floret petals ever
emerging from the centre, 3) a tall narrow wall of intense pale
greenish light so bright that the reflection off the mirror-like lake I
was driving beside was as bright and visually distracting as if it were from a
full moon, lighting up the landscape and creating shadows. This
isn't National Geographic country, but when it happens, wow.
