Live north-facing sky camera at Sodankylä in Finnish Lapland, run by the photographer Samuli Korvanen (Starlapland). It looks over the boreal forest toward the northern horizon, where the auroral oval usually sits on a quiet night. Sodankylä is at 67°N, so a Kp of about 2 is often enough. Dark enough from late August to mid-April; midnight sun from late May.
Heading to Sodankylä, Finnish Lapland? See the weather, the light and how busy it is for yourself before you go — this is the view right now, not a photo from a brochure.
