The nights and evenings here in Estonia are dark again, and this means the start of the northern lights season too. Just recently, on September 29 I got a notification of an ongoing solar storm which was not too strong. The sky was clear, and I wanted to go out to get at least some glow on my photos for the first time this season. So I drove about 15 minutes from my home to a small port, which is located in a darker area than my home. Right away, I could notice the aurora arch over the northern sky. It doesn't cause a wow effect in me, but it was still the first time this season to see the lights, so I took some shots. Pillars appeared on the horizon. The bigger light at the horizon is Helsinki's light pollution over the sea. It was cloudy there, and all the city lights reflected into the clouds. Actually I took a lot of photos, but I'm not going to upload those because what followed next was amazing and these are more worthy of showing. So I spent almost 2 hours there, taking photos,
