These stunning images show mysterious columns of light streaming into the sky above the town of Sigulda in Latvia at the end of last month.
Experts say: The air above the town was notably cold and filled with suspended ice crystals.
It is believed that the columns were formed by those reflecting light from the bright streetlamps and other lights on the ground - beaming it back downwards again.
Skies all over Europe have been filled with such natural phenomena during the cold snap of recent weeks.

We have certainly had a cold snap and I haven't seen anything like this in my backyard...I think it is more inaugural pomp.

Golly those lights are pretty.
Very interesting. Got a kick out
of the snow plow accident but
at least no one was hurt. Suppose
it was sort of a surprise when the
driver found out he was towing
another car along. Hee Hee
