Hmm not a bad selection of shots this year....

I do like Number 8, and number 11 is just freakishly gorgeous.

I voted for 4. 11 Is great too, Aurora Borealis. Would love to go to Norway and see this for myself! Apparantly there is a place so ideally placed to see the Aurora, that it can be seen during the day too!!!

It was a toss up between 7 and 12 but I went 12.

You can see the Aurora Borealis in this country on occasions, my missus saw it from our house last year ( I missed it :( ), not quite as spectacular as that in this image, but impressive none the less.

I love Aurora Borealis (or the Southern one, forget the name...lol) It's been a lifelong ambition to go to Norway or some such and watch with my own two eyes.

I was subscribed to Aurorawatch, but sadly that seems to have stopped :(
There's been a few occasions where the solar storms have been strong enough for us to see it in England, but I didn't see a thing :( What with me being in Manchester..too much light pollution for a start.

The southern one is Aurora Australis.

I voted for 7, just something grabbed me about it, most of the others seemed to be almost comedic (best description i can think of)
