Northern Lights Over Yellow Knife Canada and a Fire Rainbow

Northern Light Over Yellow Knife, Canada.

This is so beautiful..

This is a Fire Rainbow.

The rarest of all naturally occurring atmospheric phenomena.

The picture was captured on the Idaho / Washington border. The event lasted about 1 hour.
Clouds have to be cirrus, at least 20K feet in the air, with just the right amount of ice crystals and the sun has to hit the clouds at precisely 58 degrees.

That’s so beautiful!

Some of the sky pictures look like they could have been taken from the movie The Golden Compass.

I’d love to see one of those in my lifetime.
