Noctilucent clouds
normally form only during the summer, when the atmosphere heats up.
They can be found far to the north or south, towards the polar regions.
"Normal" clouds reach up to about 10km, but NLC are formed on more than
80km, as high as the auroras. Shining in pearly white, they are quite
special to watch. A little magical...

it's the first strong one. Hard to catch in the light, so close to
midsummer. |

This picture was taken by my brother Tonny at Långtora, north of
Stockholm. In my view, it's an extraordinary beautiful NLC picture,
well worth publishing even if I wasn't there myself. |

After landing on Landvetter Airport, coming home from the Alps, I can
see NLC:s to the north. The drive to my house takes one hour, but as
soon as I get home I bring my tripod, go to the lake and take my
pictures. Possibly the most beautiful NLC:s I've ever seen! |

During a visit in Kallinge NLC:s appear. Me and my
brother Tonny
go to Brantafors powerplant, and by the dam we get this picture |

the first time I take pictures of NLC:s. They are really beautiful,
almost mystical, as the appear in the summer night | | |
