The Northern Lights have fascinated human observers since time began and in the past the eerie and often psychedelic glow that takes place mostly in high latitude regions was regarded as mystical or even a sign of imminent disaster well luckily we know that thats not true and were off to take a closer look at the Aurora Borealis as its also known in northern finland and we met up with the photographer keeley who captures the celestial spectacle but to do it he needs a bit of luck a lot of patience and a warm pair of winter boots. The Northern Lights a natural phenomenon that always casts a spell on people to target for marcus kili has spent countless nights in the ice cold finnish region of lapland on his quest to capture them on camera. Northern lights are so beautiful theyre so hughson something. From the outer space so. Something like they are not from this world. Marcus is famous for his pictures of the Aurora Borealis and he takes everything that comes with the job in his stride for hours he waits into the open sky even in temperatures of minus thirty degrees all for the perfect picture. When he gets the chance he lights a fire in one of the nearby huts to warm up. But he never stays inside long he wouldnt want to miss the nocturnal performance the Northern Lights can dance across the sky for hours or mere minutes they can only be captured with a Long Exposure so he never knows how the photos will turn out. There is the different colors of. The Northern Lights the green is more common then there is also pink or red and yellow. But i like the pink the green is normally not so green earth you see in the photos but the pink is pink as you see. Refer has shot more than one hundred thousand photos to date he edits them on his computer and knows just what it takes to do the lights justice. Or person or or whatever and something in the middle and then in the background there is nothing. So that you get the person. Out here tonight and lives are if there is only not in life you cant think how big. Marcus checks every evening to see how good his chances are of seeing the lights theyre visible about two hundred times a year. The Northern Lights are created by a like trickly charged particles released from the sun that collide with particles in the earths atmosphere and they appear stronger the closer you are to the north. South pole. Good weather for the nordic lights for a photo is that the oh you have a clear sky because the Northern Lights they are. One hundred kilometers from the earths surface so the clouds are much lower as if there is clouds you will see that you will not see the Northern Lights. It must take a special kind of person to spend hours alone in the cold hunting down the lights. No i dont know you dont need to be a special type if you get tired very early then very its not good for you. But occasionally even marcus has to rest. I go go out when berries clear sky go to focus for nordic nordic lies. By the loch here its cloudy quite often so i can sleep on both sides. And the nightly trips into the freezing weather have paid off his beautiful images of the Northern Lights amaze people all over the world. And some exciting news for veggie conscious foodies because for the very first time in germany two vegetarian restaurants have been awarded a michelin star a one of them is cookies cream right here in berlin and for anyone who might be wondering how vegetables can be so impressive all critics agree that this place is all about the whole a stunning interior with an orthodox Flavorful Creations that prove chef stefan henschel philosophy of no veggie cliches is working.

Its a great honor not just for me but for the entire team. The team chef Financial Capacity is vegetarian dishes with a team of six and he does it without resorting to classic meat substitutes like tofu or seitan vegetables herbs and let him all he needs for his edible creations and stefan henschel himself isnt even a vegetarian. It is all the way to limit my cooking to vegetables because i think vegetarian cuisines multifaceted and colorful. Going on there are so many different possibilities just the colors of banks for example red yellow well but you know. When he takes a break on the restaurants roof chef up in the eastern german state of thanks an e then he trained as a chef in north rhinewestphalia in western germany in two thousand and one he moved to berlin and learned to cook go make quantity in the two star restaurant among others then he started at cookies cream. Tejanos delivers the herb some vegetables for the restaurant weekly straight from his own fields the brand of the finest specializes in rev edge tables such as malaga spinach all paris markets carrots theyre known to be especially flavorful hes been working with chef on henschel for many years. Now. Paters project says that its about taste color and shape you can see that in the vegetables the kitchen prepares so well for me theyre perfect. When preparing his vegetable creations the chef can even draw upon his years of experience making meat dishes. Off to salting the beans he wraps them in tin foil and banks them in the oven for thirty five minutes at one hundred sixty degrees celsius. Or serves the complete five or its not really brazen roast you dont boil out the flavor of your taste has to remain in the vegetable. Thank you terry and cuisine is move complex the meat dishes because every individual vegetable has to go through several stages of preparation to ensure itll turn out especially tasty but the great challenge for vegetarian cuisine is in the restaurant at this point seven hundred eighty percent of our guests rate meat and we have to satisfy them as well our dishes arent necessarily light just because theyre vegetarian they can be very rich. Cookies cream is one of the trendiest restaurants ponts the entrance is in a cool yont it serves about one hundred twenty guests daily. With. Everything tasted like you can certainly do without the meat and we really enjoy it here are. The cookies cream kitchen even experiments with vegetables in desserts this is blue we ship it with celery.
