January News Update – On the Hunt of the Northern Lights

Let me try to come up with two, not just one good reason for not joining our Finland Northern Lights Workshop – but before I answer, a short story from the past.

A night north of the Arctic Circle in Kuusamo, Finland where the temperature had dropped to minus 15 degrees celsius, a miracle happened. Over me, the Northern lights had started to dance, they started with long blue-green snake-shaped formations in the sky. First, they moved north to south and then changed to a warm color like a mixture of orange and mustard yellow. In truth, a great and for me a fantastic moment and experience – and yes, of course, I shot pictures, lots of pictures in the frozen night north of the Arctic Circle. Sorry, I forgot to answer that question – I have actually one good reason – in Finland, there are no palm trees.

At last, let me share with you an introduction video of our workshop in Finland. Click the below video and enjoy watching!

Staying in my memories

” Obviously, the highlight was the night in Riisitunturi National Park watching the Northern Lights. It was the whole atmosphere having a rustic dinner in the hiker’s hut after shooting the sunset and waiting for the Northern Light which is staying in my memory … “, expressed Bernd Beykirch from Germany, Participant of Better Moments Finland Workshop.
