This allows you to have equipment on loan in winter, and not to be lost in Lapland, which is a quite different region and which can be quite hostile if you are not well prepared. This also allows you to avoid unpleasant surprises and unforeseen expenses.<\/p><p>To get there, I chose to take the train from Toulouse to Paris, then two planes to Kuusamo via Finnair, having to join a friend in Paris. It is also possible to leave directly from Toulouse by taking two planes, via the Lufthansa company.<\/p><p>Regarding clothing, it is true that you really need to equip yourself, especially if you want to leave in the middle of winter. In order to limit the financial cost of purchases, I chose to use a second-hand clothing resale application, and a few add-ons from Decathlon. Do not hesitate to ask your friends if they have clothes to lend you.<\/p><ul><li>Provide suitable shoes, ski socks and under socks. If you go in winter, the Sorel brand is a good brand.<\/li><li>Remember to take a very warm hat, or a chapka as well as a fleece neck warmer.<\/li><li>For the hands, you can take under gloves (practical for using the mobile phone or the camera) matched with very warm gloves.<\/li><li>I took very warm ski pants, as well as merino tights to wear underneath.<\/li><li>Regarding the top, I took several merino sweaters, fleeces, and a ski coat (going down to -20\u00b0).<\/li><li>Remember to take a more resistant and waterproof backpack with a large insulated water bottle (in case of negative temperature).<\/li><\/ul><div> <\/div><div>For the rest of the things to take, I advise you to take:<\/div><ul><li>A medicine kit,<\/li><li>A greasy body cream, without water (Shea type, or oil),<\/li><li>Heaters according to your sensitivity to cold (hand \/ foot),<\/li><li>Arnica,<\/li><li>A headlamp to go hunting for the aurora borealis,<\/li><li>And of course don&#8217;t forget bathing equipment for the sauna if you want to make some!<\/li><\/ul><div> <\/div><p>Finally, if you are a photographer or you like to take pretty pictures on vacation, you will probably want to take beautiful pictures, and I can only encourage you! <\/p><ul><li>Your box, with a bright ultra wide angle lens (for the northern lights). Personally, I left with the Nikon Z6, the 24mm 1.8 (for walks) and the 14mm 2.8 (for the northern lights). To avoid overloading myself, I didn&#8217;t take portrait lenses, but I regretted it a bit, especially during the outing with the reindeer,<\/li><li>A tripod,<\/li><li>A plastic bag to store it (and avoid operating problems during temperature differences),<\/li><li>Several backup batteries,<\/li><li>A cloth to wipe off the lens (and camera) in case of condensation.<\/li><\/ul><div>

At the end of winter, some trees can have up to 3-4 tons of snow on them.<\/p><p>It wasn&#8217;t too cold, but once we got to the top, we were still happy to have some warm clothes! As you can see from the photos, the weather was not very nice, and rather dark.<\/p><p>We took a break from Finland in a wooden cabin built to eat and drink gl\u00f6gi.

even very long activity, and often disappointing! To observe them, you need good conditions, and above all luck. On this stay in Finnish Lapland, I tried the 6 nights to see some, and only the last night was conclusive.<\/span><\/p><p>Except that what we don&#8217;t know is that they are not always visible to the naked eye, or weakly. Green seems less fluorescent. <span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif;\">The photos in this article are taken on the first half of the evening that we spent observing the Northern Lights. About 3 hours separate the first green lights on the camera from the first green lights visible to the naked eye! Apart from the last photo, nothing was visible to the naked eye! <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif;\">Seeing this first series of photos of the aurora borealis, you may tell me that it&#8217;s not that impressive. I left these first 4 photos, not for their beauty, but to show that all the aurora borealis are not as impressive as what we could see, as on the second series.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section

On the observation cameras 100km to the north, the auroras are very visible. I have hope ! Around 11 p.m., patience begins to pay off: a beautiful aurora borealis is visible to the naked eye. We are delighted! The others come back, a little late, we can&#8217;t see anything. We stay. Eventually, around 1am, huge northern lights appeared in the sun, lasting until 3:30am.<\/span><\/p><p>\ud83d\udcf8 Nikon Z6 + Samyang 14mm F2.8<\/p><p>\u2699\ufe0f The settings that were suggested to me did not please me at all. So I did the following: Manual focus at infinity, f8, 30 second exposure. ISO 800. The settings are really to be chosen according to the weather conditions, and the speed of movement of the aurora. That night, the auroras were almost static, so I did a 30-second pose.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-30c1244 elementor-widget
