Now is the time for Northern Lights to be seen  in Iceland. From the end of April until the middle of August the nights are too bright for both stars and  Northern Lights to be seen.

Lately solar activity has lit up the Northern Lights around the poles.  Near midnight it is dark enough here for the lights to be enjoyed,  especially if there is no light pollution.

Last night there was adquate activity and the Moon was not to bright.  These pictures were taken in Selfoss by River Ölfusá.
