Serendipilights

Just before I boarded the plane from London to Helsinki, I updated my Treo RSS newsreader.  I was reading Doc's post about how visible the Northern Lights (Look for Auroras NOW) were and then the captain of the plane said something about how he was dimming the lights and to look outside to the left.

Lo and behold, there were the Northern lights at 30,000 feet somewhere above Sweden.  Grabbed my camera and took a picture.

Then realized turning the flash off would be a good idea.
