There is nothing quite as magical as watching the aurora borealis appear over the arctic waters of Iceland and Greenland. The clear waters reflect the gorgeous variation of colors that illuminate the Nordic skies. The aurora borealis occurs after an 11 year cycle. Wait until you see the amazing timelapse video of the aurora borealis.
Shooting the video was no easy task for Joe Capra, since the only ways of entry into Greenland are via plane, helicopter, snowmobile or dogsled. The freezing Icelandic winds made shooting even more of a challenge, but fortunately, everything came out just perfect! I hope you enjoy this incredible timelapse of the aurora borealis.
