A likeness of Jesus Christ appeared in front of a stunned photographer during a northern lights display in Iceland.
Seen high in the sky, the shape of the aurora borealis resembled the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil.
Captured during in a rare show containing vibrant colours of red, green and even purple, the deity's head, shoulders and outstretched arms were seen hovering near the Icelandic town of Akranes.
The supposed appearance of Jesus was captured by Jón Hilmarsson, 48, who was prompted by his ten-year-old son to take photographs of the vivid skies.
Jón said: 'This was the most beautiful and vivid northern light display I have ever seen.
'We usually see green auroras but that night I saw bright green, red and purple colour, which is very unusual. Many people see the shape of Christ but also an angel formation.
'It made me a little bit stressed and also excited to be there and witness this natural phenomenal in the sky, it was a unique night even though we have very often bright and beautiful northern lights in Iceland.
'It was wonderful to photograph, the lights were dancing through the sky and constantly exploding, giving me all kinds of different formation to follow and admire.'
