It is already unusual late, but since we were expecting a G2 solar storm with an KP index of 5-7, we just could\u00b4t stay home and had to try our luck at our &#8211; maybe? &#8211; very last hunt.<\/p>\n<p>The midnight sun is already there; we only have a 1,5 hours window of astro twilight where it is dark enough to see the Northern Lights at our latitude of 63 degrees North &#8211; so chances were not very promising, but&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Once again, we were lucky!<\/p>\n<p>We head to \u00feingvellir Nationalpark, one of our most famous photographing spots, because it has soo much to offer:<\/p>\n<p>The cliff between the continents, the lave fields, the beautiful lake and even a great waterfall.<\/p>\n<p>Right after midnight it got dark enough and Lady Aurora occurred, ready for her last dance in her most colourful dress&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>We had to fight with heavy winds (always take some extra weight for your tripod!) and freezing cold of -6 \u00b0C, but no matter what &#8211; it was once again SO.MUCH.WORTH.IT!<\/p>\n<p>As you see on the pictures, sunrise was close when we stopped capturing &#8211; and we\u00b4re getting ready now for our summer adventures!<\/p>\n<p>More to come soon &#8211; the videos of this night will soon be to see at our Cinema and on our DVD Volume 2.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PS: The lights will come back beginning of September &#8211; until than get prepared and visit us at our Northern Lights Center &#8211;
