The Aurora Borealis was out in full force in Sweden this week, as were The Local's readers, who sent us these pictures of the dazzling phenomenon from Kiruna to Kullaberg.

Parul Ghosh took this picture in Kullaberg in Skåne. It's very rare for the Northern lights to be visible so far south.
And then just like that, she showed up!
