I traveled to Tromsø, Norway, and took a Chasing Lights tour from there to catch the Northern Lights. We ended up in the middle of nowhere (Finland, according to our guide) and waited in the freezing cold.
Luckily, the lights did not disappoint. In person they were more magical than anything I had seen on TV. The cold did nothing to dampen my excitement, and I took a lot of pictures.
Back home, I tried to re-create the magic in watercolor. Sure enough, my skills could not reproduce half its beauty.
