Amazing Northern Lights over my hometown Uppsala, Sweden!
I remember when I got home very disappointed from Abisko, Sweden after a northern lights photo trip. The light was just not strong in the north of Sweden. I spend like 600 dollars for this trip and didn't get to see the northern lights. At home in Uppsala I checked the northern lights one more time before going to sleep. I couldn't believe my eyes! It was kp 8 that night. That is very seldom and almost as strong as it gets. I packed my things and raced to the view point in my city. There you have a beautiful view over the city and cathedral. I waited 4 hours in the cold, but it was all worth it. Around 2am the sky lit up. It was like God waving a green flashlight. I had never seen the northern lights that strong. Absolutely amazing. I payed 600 dollars to get nothing in the north and got them for free at home. Northern lights are very seldom in Uppsala. You can see them maybe 1 once or twice a year.
Keep on creating!

Great shot. I'm gonna miss seeing the northern lights where I am now. Too bad I had no camera stuff when I saw them years ago.

That looks great! Do you often have northern lights visible around there?
We've had some pretty good ones during the few last years, but I've been always watching the kid during them so no photography for me..
Something on my Bucket List for a long, long time, what lovely photography capturing Uppsala under the Northern Lights @evergreen365 have visited your beautiful city, many years ago.
So very beautiful. I never saw this natural phenomenon in real life. Good that there are pictures to share. Great job!
