With the naked eye a very satisfying start with this autumn in the ears! This usually shows those bottom edges only. In addition to the green, a little purple was visible, and a swirlingly stormy arc scattered along the sky. I have worked at the Sodankylä Geophysical Observatory for a year, from which this passion for northern lights has remained in the spinal cord ...
