      When I was at university I did a group project called “Nature’s son et Lumiere” – basically nature’s naturally occurring sound and light show! The areas we looked at were incredible and beautiful, from rainbows, to crepuscular rays coming through clouds, to the aurora, to halos, to mirages caused by heat gradients, thunder and lightning.

      You should look up the explanations for some of these things, they’re fascinating!

      I would definitely say the Aurora Borealis around the North Pole – I used to live very near it and saw it quite often and it never ever got boring. Its by far one of the most amazing phenomenons I’ve ever seen. Learning how it works almost wrecks the mystery of it!

      Apart from Aurora Borealis I think Bioluminescence is also very beautiful phenomenon

      The super thing is that you can recreate this phenomenon at home 🙂

      Without a doubt, the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) – I’ve never seen them for real, but would love to.
