Magnificent auroras light up sky in Alberta, Canada

Magnificent footage of auroras lighting up the sky in Alberta, Canada has been captured on camera. Videographer Jeff Adams, who visited Sylvan Lake on Wednesday, caught the phenomenon - also known as the Northern Lights - between 2:30am and 3:30am local time.

Sharing the images on Twitter, Adams wrote: "Somebody famous once said 'You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.' Thankfully I don't sleep, so I took a shot at driving out to Sylvan Lake, Alberta this morning, and then Lady Aurora came ripping across the sky."
