因為sunday,全town只得呢間開..........無其他選擇, 叫咗 :
1) capri (nok146)
-唔喺好薄嘅意大利餅底.........勝在熱同大份
2) brownie (nok71)
-ok啦
餐廳環境
-全自助式
遇上貴人
-喺餐廳呢度............我哋見到同我哋同1酒店嘅1對印尼華橋...........佢哋之前2晚跟咗個small group tour guide..........佢哋勁讚個guide.............1問之下收費都唔貴喎..............所以我哋食完即刻番酒店...........叫酒店職員check吓個tour今晚有無位...........然後再幫我哋cancel埋個巴士極光團 (我哋今日check in後............透過酒店幫我哋book)
睇極光common fallacies
1) 因為postcard常見到d極光都好碧綠............又會有d紫色.............所以常以為極光就喺咁..............原來postcard上極光好翠綠............喺因為曝光後嘅結果...........當現場肉眼睇時.............喺灰白色似霧/煙嘅物體.............當然強度夠時..............就會成為白中帶綠嘅光體 (都唔會喺翠綠色).............有時佢哋會有movement............極光嘅movement幅度有幾勁..........就由mother nature話事.........你遇到會喺弱到似薄霧嘅極光........還是強光體............要睇大家同佢嘅緣份
2) 今年有magazine或報紙講今年喺太陽粒子爆發高峰期..........亦喺極光嘅peak time..........當地嘅guide(連埋我哋之後去tromso嘅guide)都話佢哋無聽過呢個講法............亦証實今年嘅極光同往年比...........差別唔大
睇極光有利因素
-理想月份 : nov-mar (其他可以睇到極光嘅國家 eg greenland, iceland同alaska嘅月份可以有出入)
-個極光forecast指數最好有3 or above (2都唔喺話無機會睇到)
-唔可以落雪/ 厚雲
-天空要清
-見到星空 (即代表個天好清)
-唔好近光源,有light pollution (eg town中心,燈光火著)
-跟d small group northern light chasing tour

tonite our aurora (ie norther lights/ polar lights) forecast index (http://www.gi.alaska.edu/AuroraForecast/Europe) is 2..........other than our group.............an italian couple who also stay in our hotel are our accompany...........in fact, the italian couple joined helge's tour yesterday already..........this is their 2nd nite w/heldge
kirkenes is our 1st northern lights chasing point...........we sit in helge's van.............bringing us to several potential sites and observe............in the first few sites..........they're somehow not strong
until he drives us to the inner part of the wood (2nd last site).........very close to russia border..........though it's freezing outside (~-25 degree c)...........n i only hv 1 warm pack............we station there and hope to meet the strong aurora..........finally and finally (>20 mins) we see it forming...........getting stronger and stronger.............yes...........here v go............v clearly see it in condensed white grey color air (but in our camera, it's fluroscent green)...........v r very sure that it's not fog but aurora............the aurora spectrum is very broad...........moving fast in the sky.............the moving pattern is fanastic and dynamic..............some like explosion in the centre.........next moment............some areas like diffusion.............next moment........like waves................next moment.............flowing upside down..........u can never catch its next move
though i cant see the green shades of the aurora in my bare eyes.............this kind of stunning n amazing movements which last for about 10 mins hv already stamped in my memory for all my life...........i'd describe it very passionate like "street dance"
since my dc is not gd enough to picture the northern lights............i hv nothing to do but walk around here n there to see the pictures taken by my fd, the guide and the italian couple who are very enthusiastic............they've taken many gd photos............however, i dont hv their contact n unable to ask them for sharing me some of their master pieces
anyway, helge emailed us his great photos few days later...............i really enjoy what i see tonight............i prefer great movement which is more impressive to me instead of the bright light of the aurora (i see it later in tromso)
here comes helge's master pieces of tonite using his powerful n expensive canon camera........**once again, it's only green in camera after 8-15 seconds exposure............on spot..........u wont c the green color but obvious white/grey color air**
after this site.........the tour hasnt ended yet..........helge still keep finding site w/more magnificent view............though v all know that it's not likely.............lastly, v go to the last point where the aurora is also broad but with boring movement
when v back to the hotel..........it's after 12.00 midnight.........what a nite!!!!.............thx heldge~~~~

好似好凍咁喎, 夠吾夠暖呀?
回覆刪除咦~~好勁呀!影到北極光, 仲可以影張合照
依一日真係大開眼界呀, 睇完篇blog我都當自己去左北歐咁~~
回覆刪除不過點解今日依篇冇左開心指數??
Hi jj, Tried to call your phone and leave a message on FB but cannot find you. Guess you may be out of town. Any chance to have lunch on 27/3 or 28/3 (Wednesday or Thursday)? Please let me know...Please leave a message on FB or call my phone 92485869.
回覆刪除妳真係好好彩丫，睇到北極光，真係好難忘
回覆刪除妳去個陣幾多度呀?
wowwwwwwwwww I can't take my eyes off it. Thanks for your detailed description. It is a pity that I won't be free in those months. By the way, the snow hotel is beautiful to look at, but living inside may not be a good idea as it is too cold.
