There are apps that make it entirely possible. I have done it myself in Finland a few years ago and have some brilliant photos. Maybe not as good as an SLR!!

We’re heading to Tassie in Feb 19 and looking forward to everything it has to offer. I was there as a child in the 50’s to meet rellies and may hopefully catch up with someone in Launceston.
My grandfather worked on the suspension bridge over the Tamar way back when.

We missed lights in Iceland 2 years ago because of fly out times.
We can go back in the next 4 years to see them free but the $20,000 for both of us is a bit steep

Any experience on the Northern nights wanting to do them as well. Thank you Janet

Hi Tustuyu, We are looking into translating articles, but at the moment, no, we aren’t able to translate into other languages. Let us know if you have any specific questions and we’ll see what we can do. Regards,

Hi Yunus, The darkness of winter is the best chance to see the Lights, but they are very unpredictable, as is nature’e way. Check out the article for some hotspots and websites to see updates. Good luck on your quest. Cheers
