There is a new show on about Tromholts drawings of the northern lights at the Polar museum (www.bbc.com/news/article...), but the first proper photographs were made by Carl Størmer in 1909. This one is probably a bit later, but the look is similar.

I’m with you on that one @jayneknight29.bsky.social 🤓🙌🏼😂

During «fall cleaning» at the museum we found this Gollum-looking #photographer on one of the photo wallets. 👀😬📷
