THE STORY:
The autumn of 2020 was not a very cold one, at least not the first half. I still had to dress extremely warmly on Friday October 23. It was just above zero degrees Celsius but the wind was coming straight in from the sea.

It started with the typical faint green arch and after 15 minutes or so we started seeing vertical lines in it. And suddenly it bursted out in colours and moving shapes. We cheered and, of course, hurried to take a group photo in front of the Northern Lights.
