the sky above
According to the weather forecast, it should be mostly cloudy that night. Luckily the weather didn't hold up and it was clear most of the night with a few hazy clouds. However, the Northern Lights came very late, the show started around one o'clock in the morning. This was a bit unexpected and since I didn't know how long the lights would dance, I didn't take the time to drive to Goðafoss, about 15 minutes away. Instead, I took photos in an open field right next to my accommodation, which turned out to be a stroke of luck because the lights dance across the entire northern sky from west to east. At Goðafoss, the waterfall in the foreground gives direction and I would have missed a large part of the spectacle there.
