Some neat photos from the links as well

 

 

When ice climbers Mike Stuart and Takeshi Tani set off to scale the Athabasca Glacier in Alberta, Canada, their photographer Paul Zizka was just hoping for clear skies so he could capture the stars as the pair conquered this wonder of the Canadian Rockies. But the trio was in for a surprise when the Northern Lights illuminated the sky behind them as Stuart and Tani scaled the glacier upside down.
