Aurora borealis dancing with the moon

            I went to Bláfjöll, a mountain area nearby Reykjavik,  the evening of 5th of December. My plans was to take a photo of the moon which was full and the sky was quite clear. Then a light mist appeared on the sky and then suddenly the simphony brake lose.
