Aurora Borealis from Tromso

[keni (Ken)]

Hi Rick,
That is just beautiful.
I'd like to add you're missing some fabulous weather here....but I'd be lying big time as you probably know.
Looking forward to catching up and drooling over all your pics when you return.

Ken.

Thanks, Ken.

The Qld weather has been on the news here, so I did know I wasn't missing much

We arrived in Iceland yesterday. It's worse than Melbourne. We've had rain, snow, sleet and sunshine all several times today. The aurora forecasts look good, but I don't know if we're going to get any clear skies.

See you when I get back!

Cheers,
Rick.

Rick, great images, they look good on the video but I bet they were spectacular live looking forward to seeing them on the big screen when you return.

Thanks for the explanation Rick. Looks definitely like something to go see in the flesh.
