The air was relatively bright, so I went to check out the graphic almanac evening window of the illuminating night clouds. So if anyway. Nothing except a few twilight strips. The orange broth is brightened with a white balance handle. The last is the original sampled with the sunlight setting.

Voitto Pitkanen, Ursa (Pohjois-Suomi)
I stared and photographed from the starry sky until almost sunrise, and the brightest constellations were already clearly visible. Alongside that, the timelapse camera was pointed at the northern sky to see if northern lights and the like could be seen from there. It was cloudy in between and then it became clear again. Wondering at these altitudes to see night clouds at this time of year? I will post for comment and the observation can be removed in the negative case. That was the view. Personally, I was in such a shooting location that I couldn’t see the northern horizon from below.

I was returning from a storm hunt home when I saw a lighter cloud of clouds behind one thunderstorm in the north, night clouds? I drove to the nearby marina before going home and there the clouds became night clouds, a moment earlier I could have tried to shoot the flash according to the picture. Direction: north-northeast Height: 7 degrees

Arja-Sisko Airila, Ursa (Etelä-Suomi)
In the northern sky, very low, there were illuminating night clouds. Long ribbon-like belts ran from north to northeast. A small area on the left side showed waves, the rest was mostly opaque gauze. The forest limited visibility, especially to the northeast. It was so dark that the camera’s 15-second shutter speed didn’t want to be enough when I took the first pictures. The adjustments but did not allow longer shutter speeds. The night clouds rose a little higher during the hour, but at the same time the morning began to dawn and the night clouds disappeared. Could be the last night clouds thi...

A small matte play in the northeastern sky, maximum height 10 degrees. Nice additional viewing during the night thunder and ass. Would they have been the last of the season for me?

When photographing the asses , dim nightshocks were also visible in the sky. They lingered for a long time right on the horizon, brightening towards the morning.

There was no spectacle at the top of Malminkartano. On the side of the night there was still some glow in the north, but as the clock approached the two were quite dark. In the West, however, distant lightning flashed.

9.8. the clouds on the horizon blocked the negative observation, but now it was quite clear. Nothing was visible at the three standard observation sites and nothing was found in the ten control images. I guess a little quietly go to the well with an ax.

Let me put an old negative observation of this, even now only as a support and extension of M. Siljama's negative. While on a pine boat ride on a pine ridge, a little bit of the sky was watched in the hope of the night clouds, but without noticing anything suggesting them. By the time that was already over, and no notes had been made, so I would stick to "sure tears" about the times. That is: the beginning of the review shot (which includes a 1.15 shot) and the end of "Iridium rowing". (At 2.21, a flash of mag -8.4 Iridium 25 was promised, which was from our campsite in the direction of "f...

The sleeping mat rushed to the night tree, but I still checked the northern lights camera, which had a familiar silver glow on the horizon. Had to go out on a foggy night to knock down standard seats. Low in the north and northeast, a few belts stood out despite the glare. Pictures taken at 2.36, 2.46 and 2.59.

The sky is clear to the greatest extent. There were few tropospheric clouds in the southern sky, but the northern horizon was at least clear. No night clouds visible. Figure 1. North, 2:03 p.m.

The lower clouds became a cover from the northeast, but there were enough gaps that a modest performance would have gazed at some of the cracks. Only lens reflections were seen by dragging the images.

Mikko Peussa, Ursa (Länsi-Suomi)
Nothing night cloudy in the sky throughout the dark period. The northern sky was almost clear all night. The picture was taken at about 03.30.

There were no illuminating night clouds. There are some strings in the seventh image, but without reliable confirmations they are not really enough for a positive observation. I went to check the same area again, but it was just standard. A fireball popped up as consolation, with a separate report.

Jaakko Hatanpää, Ursa (Länsi-Suomi)
The northern lights were supposed to be chased but apparently at these latitudes it is still a little too bright for the dim rays to appear. The sky was almost cloudless throughout from sunset at night and the weather was great anyway so I took advantage of the situation by practicing a bit of composing the panoramas.

Toni Veikkolainen, Keski-Uudenmaan Altair
I hadn’t seen the night clouds yet this August, and there was no change. Only a reddish twilight echo was visible on the northern horizon, and on the south side the stars were already shining quite brightly. I first went to the edge of a nearby sports field to take a quick look at the situation, and later I observed the situation occasionally in connection with the description of Comet C / 2014 E2 (Jacques).
