I had to bring her cameraback to house in one hour at the most, for the camera wasgoing to be broken because of the cold temperature.As I took the pictures of the northern lights, I came tofind a characteristic movement of the lights. They firstappear in the north part of the sky and then they graduallycome down to the south part of the sky. After that,suddenly, they come in the middle of the north and southonly for a while, which is the time when the best northernlights can be seen.
