Dear Eunice,
Such an amazing, calm, serene night picture on your trip to the Lofoten Islands, Northern Norway. Not many people get a chance to travel there. Certainly a perfect place to come to view the Aurora Borealis. Well done.
As a person who loves snow-capped mountains, It is amazing to look at the photograpy across the calm-glass-like lake towards the snow-capped mountains, then looking up into the night sky and seeing a once-in-a-life-time chance of seeing a naturally spectacular, dancing fire-works display.
From Rebecca Hill
Thanks Bryan and Anne, I have about 50 spectacular shots from this one trip to Norway. A wonderful place to look to the skies.
Thanks for the links Laurence, the volcanic one is especially spectacular.
Eunice
I think you will like this photo released today (23 Sept 14) on NASA’s APOD website showing another aurora but with a volcanic influence:-

Hi again, Eunice
I came across a marvellous photo released only a couple of days ago on NASA’s “Astronomy Picture Of the Day” (APOD)
website showing a lovely aurora resulting from our Sun’s recent CME (Choronal Mast Ejection) convulsion. It made me recall your lovely and exquisite photo. Here it is for you and others to enjoy. I still think your photo is the better one!

Best wishes.

Hi again, Eunice,
Thanks for the links Laurence, some amazing photographs. It’s a wonderful world out there.
Stunning photo
Ever seen an Airglow Ripple? I’ve not, till now. Via NASA’s APOD (Astronomy Picture Of the Day) website a remarkable photo has been posted showing an Airglow Ripple photographed over Tibet.
Here’s the view;-
