Well, I was travelling from London to Tokyo on Sunday night (GMT) and the pilot on the JAL flight informed everyone of the northern lights. The view out north was spectacular. Ive never seen an aurora but this was large and beautiful. We were over nothern Siberia at the time and at 35,000 ft and was distinctly green. I kicked myself for packing the company's 7D into the check in luggage!!!

A sight I will never forget.

Cheers,
Darrin (from an icy Tokyo)
