Snapping the light fantastic: Your photos of the northern lights over B.C.

Aurora borealis hasbeen lighting up night skies around the world this week, and British Columbia has been no exception.

Forecasting bodies such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration agency's space weather prediction centreand Space Weather Canadahave been predicting and recording elevated geomagnetic activity from the sun producing solar flares, which cause the northern lights to be visible.

Early Thursday, in particular, saw high activity with more to come: the Whitehorse-based Auroraforecast.com is predicting an intense forecast for tonight, before things calm down over the weekend.

Here are some shots of what they've looked like over the past few days across B.C.
