RE: 7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - European Thursday week #21 - the absolute winner takes 200 SBD!
Amazing colors of the northern lights . I never seen one ever 😞 . Could you please advise, which month is the best time to come and see that?and which place?
Well, Iceland is a pretty reliable place - northern Norway also, and northern Canada, around Whitehorse or Yellowknife, or parts of Alaska. Between 60 degrees north and the arctic circle is the sweet spot. Best time of year is fall through winter, and beyond that it's down to solar activity and weather. As it happens, @chaseburnett authored an excellent guide just last night: https://steemit.com/photography/@chaseburnett/photographing-the-northern-lights-an-in-depth-guide
Of course there's also the southern lights...but I don't have experience with them.
🙏 thank you for the explanation. Well noted for my next trip 😊 hopefully i can see it and take a great pics like yours
When I was travelling to Norway, they said September to March are the best time for Northern lights. We were lucky and saw Northern lights almost everyday, but just the green stuff, not the bright pink and yellow which are much rarer
Cool. Well noted too 👍 thanks for the info :) i really wanna see the Northern lights one day
