• Other planets like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune have their own lights.
• Scandinavia is the best place to see the Northern Lights apart from Canada, Scotland, Russia, Iceland and Alaska.
• Point and Shoot cameras do not do justice to the pictures of these vibrant Northern Lights. We strongly suggest you to click photographs in either night mode or fireworks mode on DSLRs or mirrored cameras.
