The quiet dance of the Arctic lights was a spellbinding finish to a cold day training in the icy ocean. The northern lights, formally known as aurora borealis, emerge in the sky when the sun's outermost plasma drives the solar wind towards Earth. The particles collide with nitrogen and oxygen atoms in the atmosphere and create ions that give off the colors we see lighting up the sky. This natural phenomenon has fascinated people for centuries, and it is even thought to be depicted in a cave painting dating back to 30,000 B.C. For those interested, my last @rizzolibooks on the Grand Canyon, which won Banff & Outdoor Book awards, is available on Amazon and where photo books are available. For more quiet places, follow @pedromcbride. #nature #northernlights #Norway #humbled by #silence #quiet 📷 by #PeteMcBride」11月16日 0時50分
