I just skipped all these steps and named our Finnish daughter Aurora. So I can easily see a Finnish Aurora.

As professional northern light hunter/photographer, here's some tips: 1) Check the weather: You need clear sky, if you don’t see stars, there is no point to go out. Or use weather forecast to find a spot with clear sky! 2) Use an aurora app! People use apps, but don't know how to use them... DO NOT check the KP or predictions, KP is a matter of latitude and prediction are based on previous years: we don't care! Go straight to the graphs and check the 4: - The Speed of solar wind need to be above 350 km/s - The density of Particles per Cubic Cm (P/CC) need to be above 5 (the second most important one) - The inclinaison of magnetic field (BZ) need to be bellow 0 (the most important one) - The intensity of magnetic field (BT) need to be above 5 Those indications are from DSCOVR satellite, it takes between 30-40mn to arrive on earth. So you check when everything is ok, then you add Universal Time (2h for Finland), then 30mn = Enjoy! 3) Look in the north direction, find a lake, a bog or some place open in north direction. The flames from the fox will appear on roughly 160° wide with north in the middle. Sometimes everywhere but never at the beginning. 4) Use a phone and a tripod, go to your "pro" mode and add those preset : 2sec delay (do not move at all) / 4sec speed exposure (S) / ISO 1000 / Focus Multi (F) And (of course) no flash. 5) Massive explosions like crazy pictures online arrives for real and you can see them clear, but they are extremely RARE, maybe 4-5 times per season, you need to be crazy lucky. 25% of time you will see nothing with your eyes, but camera will. 50% of time you will see an ark (big or small) and 24% of time they are a bigger but blurry. Enjoy!

I was at my friend's cottage by lake in Mikkeli, having 4 hr evening swimming, sauna, eating sausages with drinks, snow everywhere, butt naked and having the best time and Boom, Northern lights appeared, it was fantastic to see, never forget it. Welcome to Finland and I was visiting from America.

Even as an app developer, I really must agree with trusting apps blindly is a huge mistake. Never know when the show starts, and the beautiful landscape is quite amazing even without northern lights. One more mistake that might not be as bad, is the position and phase the moon is in during the period you go traveling for northern lights. Nice if possible to avoid full moon and if possible, go traveling when the moon is down during night. Thanks for great content!

Believe it or not, I dreamt northern lights the last night and now you came out with this video 😃 I have spotted my first Aurora on the very first night in Rovaniemi some years ago. What a privilege! It looked like two thin green lines dancing in the sky. I was so mesmerized by that experience that I didn't want to take my camera off and get some footages. Sometimes I find the camera is a distraction, sometimes I want to fully enjoy the moment and I want it all for myself. After 30 minutes, I was freezing at -20°, it decided to vanish as quickly as it appeared. I ran to the hotel shouting at the receptionist "woooo I've just seen the Aurora!!!" And he replied, calmly, "pfftt we see it every night...." And I was like "whaaaat I traveled 2000 km for this!!!!!!!!!" Haha! Aurora was one of the greatest experience in my life

Wonderful advice! Esp. "don't make your trip all about Auroras". You would get very disappointed if you plan nothing ahead but only aurora, but fail to see it (which is very likely). I was lucky enough to watch my first aurora in Iceland in 2018. But in the same trip, the glacier trekking alone was such a wonderful experience. It already completed my trip even if I hadn't been able to see the aurora. Likewise, another amazing aurora encounter in Inari, Lapland in 2020 (even more beautiful, with those dancing lights of multi-color). But the fjord experience in Norway in the same trip was also precious enough to mark my trip.

We were living away from the city lights so when I got dark, it got really dark and the views were so clear.

Hi Varpu, We were very fortunate to witness the Northern lights during our visit to Karkussen on 25-28th January 2023. the first night we saw them from our Igloo attached to our log cabin when we ran outside to photograph them, the second night we captured them during out reindeer safari!!!. I was always under the impression that the light could be seen green with the naked eye however, it wasn't until I pointed my IPhone 14 at the lights I could see them more clearly. Wouldn't it be amazing if someone could invent a pair of glasses with the same lens technology as our camera's much in the same way as 3D glasses were used in watching 3D films in cinema's? Keep up your amazing work! The Finnish tourism board should employ you full time to actively promote visits to your country with that natural welcoming Finnish smile!!!!!! Looking forward to returning someday! :)

Some suggestions to make mobile phone pictures of the aurora: Learn how to use the exposure and ISO features on your phone. My older Android in Pro photo mode will take up to a 10 second exposure at ISO 800, which helps bring out the colors. Newer phones have more features. Besides a tripod I recommend getting a Bluetooth camera shutter remote control. Once you pair it to your phone, you can snap a photo without touching the camera. Helps keep it from shaking and blurring the photo. Some phones use voice commands to trigger the camera, which works just as well. Enjoy!

I saw the revontulet in Taivalkoski (near Kuusamo) in January when I was working in Finland many years ago. We all got dressed quickly (it was minus 35C) and went out onto the street to see it. The next night I was in the sauna and looked up through a small window and there it was again - green and moving slowly. So I called all my colleagues and we got dressed quickly (again) and rushed outside, but... no aurora! Disappointed we all went back inside and when I went to collect my towel from the sauna, I realised that it was steam from a factory chimney that I had seen through the green glass window in the basement where the sauna was. We all had a good laugh when I told them what had happened!

Love the video. Thank you so much. I have seen the Aurora in Lapland a few times (Tromso several times, Kiruna/Abisko a couple of times - though sadly, neither are in Finland, but the tours from the former often go across the border) & really love what I have been able to see. Good advice - especially about batteries (which lose their power very fast in the cold). The best display I saw was 30th Jan in 2017 in Finland. They are both wonderful and very addictive! :)

Great video. Sometimes the best things are the ones that are unplanned. Back in the early 1970's I went on a camping trip with my now husband in Wisconsin (USA). We went out on a pier on the lake to see the Milky Way. Much to our surprise we also were treated to an aurora display. Since we were so far south it was just white and gray. Being unexpected, it was quite a memorable event. Good grief, that was 50 years ago!

Great video! Some apps/services are actually really useful, but you need to know how to use them. For example the app you're probably talking about is based on the OVATION aurora model, which attempts to predict the probability of auroras directly above any given point. So if your app says the chance is 12%, the chance of seeing aurora at some angle when you look at the sky is a lot higher.

Thanks for sharing, Varpu! Quite good information and well packed! I'd say this is an excellent post for people traveling to Finland. However, for local residents, it may not be feasible to travel to Lapland on a short notice. I'd like to add a key element here - looking at the aurora forecast (long and short term) and getting familiar with the weather on the sun is key to hunting. I live in Espoo and like you say, have seen many faint shows but also some of the best shows of my life. Have you ever tried aurora hunting from south of Finland? :)

I saw the Aurora Borealis many years ago while visiting family in Northern Colorado . It was a strong solar storm with KP of 9. It was certainly a life changing experience.

I've spotted a beautiful Aurora Matinalis in the Swiss mountains in summer. I hope I'll see one of the Borealis type before I join the Great Hologram at the edge of the Universe.
