Magical moment a stargazer appears to grab an orb out of the sky - PHOTO

But this picture was actually taken in Finland, deep in the heart of 'The Aurora Zone'.This is one of the best places in the world to see the incredible Aurora Borealis, a 'once in a lifetime' sight for many.The photograph was taken by Antti Pietakainen, from The Aurora Zone - a company offering holidays across Northern Scandinavia.The Aurora is named after the Roman goddess of dawn and is a natural light display caused by the collision of energetic charged particles with atoms in the high altitude atmosphere.  As highly charged electrons from solar wind enter the upper atmosphere, they encounter atoms of oxygen and nitrogen at altitudes from 20 to 200 miles above the earth's surface.The colour of the aurora depends on which atom is struck, and the altitude of the meeting. Green and reds are found at higher altitudes, while blue, purple and violets are lower.(dailymail.co.uk)ANN.Az
