Aurora Borealis
Aurora Borealis magic over the Arctic skies of Norway and Finland. Incredible video presentation with a time lapse.
Enjoy the view from the comfort of YouTube channel, it’s not always easy for photographers to be shooting pictures during the light of day and to stay awake during the night in search for the northern lights. My experience has been one of shooting pictures during the the early morning, working during afternoon and evening and resting and sleeping during the night time.
Aurora Borealis defined
An aurora is a natural light display in the sky (from the Latin word aurora, “sunrise” or the Roman goddess of dawn), especially in the high latitude (Arctic and Antarctic) regions, caused by the collision of solar wind and magnetospheric charged particles with the high altitude atmosphere (thermosphere).
Auroras Borealis seen near the center of the magnetic pole may be high up overhead. Looing at the Aurora Borealis from further out they illuminate the northern horizon with greenish glow and at times faint red colors. Aurora Borealis also display magnetic field lines and curtain-like structures, that can flicker and can change quickly within seconds or keep on glowing for a long time, even in hours with fluorescent green colors.

Christmas holiday season and the mystery of the father Christmas.
Christmas holiday season is fun all around, it is the Jolly season by tradition of the entire calendar year. Christmas holiday season is filled with mystique and mystery for the children, children have inquisitive minds and they want to know more stories about the reindeer, more stories about the elves, and more stories about the father Christmas. The far north Arctic landscape is covered over with white snow, there is snow over the roads, snow on the steps, snow over the fence posts, snow over the rooftops, and snow over the tall pine trees, and everywhere you go outdoors and look there is white snow everywhere to seen around, on the ground, on the trees, the houses.
Looking for the father Christmas house in the Arctic.
In the children story books we read that the father Christmas lives up in the north pole, the north pole is a very surreal and mysterious place, there are all kinds of animals there that are not seen anywhere else. The area surrounding the north pole is called the Arctic region, in the Arctic region, there are many kinds of animals that are really unique to the arctic region only. There is the polar bear that is not easy to spot in the landscape when it is the winter season, because the polar bear is white in color and all of the landscape is covered in white snow and ice. Polar bears like to stay outdoors in the cool snow and ice of the arctic region, they like to run, slide down snow covered hills and play amongst themselves in the snow of the Arctic.
Puffin.
Atlantic puffins live in Iceland, Greenland, Norway and Atlantic Canada, as well as further south.
Lynx.
This picture below represents the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) it is a medium-sized cat native to European and Siberian forests. Also central Asia and East Asia. Other names for the lynx is the European lynx, or a common lynx and the northern lynx, and the Siberian or Russian lynx.
Arctic fox.
The white fox picture below is a picture of the arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus), also known as the white fox, polar fox, or snow fox, it is a small fox native to the Arctic regions of the Northern Hemisphere and common throughout the Arctic tundra regions.
The above pictures are just some of the animals that live in the Arctic regions and on the perimeter of the Arctic Circle. There are also large mammals that live in the waters of the Arctic, there are many types of whales, seals, walrus, and many types of fish and crustaceans as well. There is a lot of wildlife in the Arctic region that not many people have gone there to see them because it is so cold there with snow and ice during the cold winter seasons.
Arctic Finland with an environment for natural harmony
Finland has many interesting seasons around the year to explore and discover the seasonal changes in the natural environment, the old saying there are two sides to the coin. The contrast between the seasonal changes from winter to summer are in many ways the opposite to each other. The rain falls from the sky and the water runs down the creeks and the rivers during the summer season. Plants also thrive during the warming of weather from later spring season to early summer and beyond. The Arctic Finland has a very dynamic natural environment that comes alive during the summer season.
