I'm Icelandic and I've never
a) seen the Northern Lights appear while the sun is out
b) seen them form that shape, which seems off based on the angle
c) seen them in summer, which is when this seems to have been taken.
So yeah, my bullshit detector is going off right now.
I think you’re right. My first thought was that I didn’t think the lights are visible in the summer.
