Whoa! Sounds great. I remember them as a kid in Vermont, but haven't
seen any in many years. Orange, red, blue and green swirls and snakes
blasting forth. Sky ghosts. What makes them happen?
Best,
Leland

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.
cp in bc

die. now i can't remember if bottom posting is better than top posting.
