Third time the charm!

I was in Finland a couple weeks ago, and see them but they weren't bright at all. You could barely see them with a camera. And then a couple of days later, our taxi driver told us that the night before was the brightest most colorful auroras he'd seen and it was possible for us to see them from our hotel but we didn't know about them.

This was around midnight? Maybe 11:30 pm?
It was so dynamic.. this happened in a matter of 2 minutes..then lasted for 5 and disappeared..

Ah. We were at the parking about 22:50 I'm glad you got to enjoy the aurora.

I it's a lot of luck and patience. We were ready to leave.. seen some at the distanced.kinds strong but far away.. them this magic happened right out of nothing and intensified in less than 2 mo utes.it was insane how fast it picked up
