The Northern Lights in Iceland, & taking photos with Iphone

FORECAST WEBSITE

  • Website HERE : gives a forecast of when lights will appear
  • Factors in all the science stuff to best predict when they’re visible
    • Temp, weather, clouds, location etc
  • Changes day by day
  • Labels: “KP 1-5” with 5 being most likely to see the lights

FYI

  • Can capture with Iphone
  • Iceland usually always cloudy- need to have clear skies (away from cities)
  • How they appear in photos is not how it appears to the naked eye
  • Hotels have wake up options- ask when checking in
