Hello Mark,
The above picture was taken at Senja, which is between Harstad and Troms? but closer to Troms?. I had a telephone call from Troms? today telling how spectacular the Northern lights were at present and it were time I got my ass back up there. It is special at this time due to the Sun spot peak. Due to the winter darkness - the lights have been visable by both night and 'day'.
