15 Winners Of The Northern Lights Contest By “Capture The Atlas”
#5 “Finland At Night” By Kim Jenssen
Finnish Lapland
“After spending many hours waiting in the cold forest of Ruka, Finland, at –36 Cº, and without any visible aurora activity, we decided to walk back to our cars. On the trail down, I saw something on my left side and told my friend to stop and wait. Suddenly, the aurora started to ‘dance’ and all I had to do was to jump in the snow, get my camera ready, and shoot! There was no planning or time to focus on composition. After 5 minutes, the Northern Lights disappeared, but it was a night with a happy ending.”
