Several halo forms

Spontaneous shooting trip to Himos and a few halo pictures. The pillar of the sun is a little faint in the picture.

Diffuse glow

I had to grab a picture of those northern lights, even if they weren't weird. Mainly a fairer arch in the northern sky without any movement (except for the two momentary pillars).

Half-sky auroras

28.9. started a very varied show, with bright repos in places and distinctive in places only in the pictures.

Aurora rays

The dim northern lights stood out from the light pollution. These appeared for about a minute and then they disappeared. Not a stunning show, but I saw something nonetheless.

The clouds fell from the sky on Friday during the day, but the forecast for the northern lights was otherwise poor. Well, I decided to try the ice in the evening before the sauna (about 10:30 pm) and there was a very dull gauze there. I took a test shot and was able to confirm the observation. And at about 23 times it started to happen. Belts, gauze, and rays began to appear in the sky in a vague order. Some were very active and some quite passive. The show continued until 0:30 until it started to freeze and the graph froze. The clouds also flew to the scene as early as 0:20. Then for those wh...

Quiet aurora arc

Again, a dim arc of northern lights was visible in a northwest-east direction. But when you look at these observations of the Sky Guard, I guess the climate of the evening is to go sideways again.

On the eve of the night, we also got northern lights here in Jämsä, which finally hit their own place after 3 weeks of use. When I don’t know what kind of practice it is in Sky Watch if you take pictures of the same phenomenon from different places, then add two more map links here. But one thing I would like to ask. Do northern lights make sound? If not, can a person hear sounds related in any way to the northern lights?

Several bright halo forms

In the middle of the day, I noticed a bright cloud under the sun. After a quick glance, it was revealed that it was a halo. Halo when I'm not feeling so well now, so no miracles write here.

Diffuse glow

When the meters show hard readings 20.4. i decided to go out to see if anything would show up. At 11pm nothing was visible yet and I really decided to wait until something was visible as the previous night was left to weigh my mind. The northern lights were really dim, almost gray clouds. Only at the very end of the play was a brighter green ray slightly visible above the trees in the western sky. Colors are better seen in images than in the sky.

Half-sky auroras

Here are my first Pictures in the Sky Watch. The northern lights started quickly and took over more than half of the sky, but it took so short that I didn’t get a picture. The whole show lasted about an hour.
