Hello.
As some of you might already know, i'm from Norway, or more specific, i'm from the city 'Troms++' in Norway. So let's talk about the city and what we can experience here.
Everybody knows that the second you steps into Norway, you are surrounded with amazing natures all around you. That's one of the reasons why Norway is being called 'Worlds most beautiful contry in the world'. Now, this topic isn't going to be about that, but about the thing you can experience by looking up into the sky.
Not only do we see amazing things normally from the nature here, but we also see wonderfull things by looking up into the skies to. This is called aurora, or northern lights. Alot of peoples around the world have never seen this fantastic experience in real life. I can tell you that you are missing something big in your life if you aren't able to experience this in real life.
So, there is a reason why the city 'Troms++', or the area around the city are one of the most popular places in the world when it comes to visitors that want to experience the northern lights. When the northern lights are strong and completely visible, then you can just look up into the skies and experience something that makes you get goosebumps all over you body. It's like being on another planet.
So let me introduce the most amazing video of the northern lights i have seen so far from the area around Troms++. Remember that this video doesn't contains ANY timelapses. It only contains real footages (with some HDR added) that are video recorded in real time with no speed-ups. This video shows the real deal when it comes to seeing northern lights or auroras.
Enjoy this wonderful and stunning video: http://vimeo.com/113094940

I'm from germany, a little town near the airport, we can experience the most beautiful traffic jams (cars in every color and design) every day at 9:00 AM and sometimes the airplanes deviate a little from their flight path so we might "experience" the incredible sound their engines make, it's quite awesome, sometimes. If you love airplanes.
Luckily tho, the cold war is over, so our jetfighters are no longer allowed to practice their low altitude super sonic maneuvers above our town. Nobodies windows have been shattered by super sonic booms for at least two decades. YAY! \o/
We've got a nice little wood right in the center of our town it's really beautiful, wish I had some photos to sharesince it's really idyllic and won't be there for much longer since the mayor decided that we desperatley need some more houses right were that wood is...
Uh... if you ever thought of moving to one of those little towns on munichs outskirts near the airport, please don't. I hear the southern part of munich is much nicer, and you can even see the mountains from there. xD
Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

we have northern lights where i live as well. not usually so strong. more often a subdued twisting haze of colors. displays like the ones in this video are not very common but they do happen. once, i can remember watching the sky ripple with curtains of the richest blues and silvery whites. i've not seen them that color again since. usually that haunting green showcased in the video |

I'm from the more southern regions of the northern hemisphere, where day and night have about the same amount of time year-round. I always wonder what it would be like to live in places closer to the Poles, with more extreme switches between amounts of daylight and dark time, and having northern light magnetism in your skies.
Pretty amazing, the zones of climates human primates have gone into, eh? We can live about anywhere, but the daily environmental life experiences are so different. Pacific Ocean waves or Aurora Borealis in your backyard, either way seems it's all about the same....

Incase someone is wondering. At this time of the year here, you can actually see the auroras / northern lights almost every day now as long as there is very little to no clouds to be seen.
Some days the auroras are pretty weak and you have to be on a completely dark environment / place to be able to see it and some days you can see it pretty strongly in the sky without the need of being in a dark environment / place.

I actually miss living in Northern places.
I have spent quite some time in the dreary equator, where all we have is rain season and heat season.
I was born high in the Mountains, Sea level city living for me has always been ... meh
This video made me rekindle my itch for traveling, I have to see those lights with my own eyes before I die!
Awesome vid! +1

Now, this picture wasn't taken here in Troms++ though. It was taken a little more north of the city, but the picture is still nice :-)

Oh, even though this video is not just about auroras, i'm still gonna show you a video that both shows the amazing nature that is here in norway and does have some timelapse shots of the auroras here in northern Norway.
The song in the video is also Norwegian, so they sings in Norwegian.

You know, northern lights are one of the very few things I envy of living up there, environmentally speaking.
As for the OP video, I've been shocked. I didn't knew that auroras could do that (when they explode in waves of pink!) or shift so fast in real time.

This picture was taken yesterday close to Troms++: https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xap1/t31.0-8/10828055_1424501434506821_39791079551320584_o.jpg
That's a pretty nice picture if you ask me. Actually, i was outside yesterday and saw some auroras, but it disapeared fast, so i believe that the aurora that was yesterday was earlier before i went outside.

Again we had a freaking amazing aurora show the 2 last days here in Troms++. It was so intense here that the biggest Norwegian newssite in Norway called VG (www.vg.no) was directly streaming live on TV from Troms++ yesterday.
Here is a picture that was taken the last 2 days: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7309753/Bilder/10390459_881525568547250_5307877964046274778_n.jpg
To bad i couldn't find a bigger and better picture of that. But it still looks really nice.

This is something you don't see often when it's about filming the northern lights: http://www.nrk.no/nordnytt/glem-elg-i-solnedgang-_-her-danser-nordlyset-med-reinen-1.12133512
Just watch the video on top of that link.
It's written in Norwegian, but it's taken in Troms++ where i live at the same time with some reindeers .

Yesterday was really great for me. Me and a friend decided to go on a little tent trip to a little water here. We do this type of trips from time to time to chill out in the nature.
What was so special about yesterday is that there was biting cold, no clouds and it was almost no lights to be seen which made it pretty easy to see tons of stars as it was pretty dark. Not only did we lay down on the ground to watch for shooting stars (it's like 10+ years since i did watch for that last time), but we did see the northern lights at the same time to.
The feeling of seeing both the shooting stars and the northern lights at the same time is pretty exciting.

Time for some new super duper awesome pictures of auroras .

And those 2 last pictures says more than a thousand words.

https://farm8.staticflickr.com/7577/16048843046_0f643604c9_o.jpg
And everyone of those pictures here is again taken in Troms++ or close to Troms++.
Now, you might wonder, why isn't i'm posting pictures that i have taken my self from this as i'm so intrested in this?
That's because i don't have a camera (except for the camera on my Samsung Galaxy Note 4) that is capable of taking pictures of the auroras now. So buying a good camera that can take pictures of this, or even filming the auroras is something i might consider buying.
The thing is that if i have had a camera for this, i would basicly be living outside taking pictures and filming the auroras now. Troms++ is a perfect place for doing that as we have the ability to see and experience the auroras for about 6-7 months every year because of the darker times we have here.
