the picture with the supposed non-northern lights

hi all,

my best friend and i are currently in lapland, finland, and we are staying in some of the glass igloos. we thought we saw the northern lights, but my mom is saying that those aren't actually the northern lights. there's no possibility of them being light pollution or street lamp pollution as these were taken around 3 AM and we did not see the red any time we were looking (on both aurora cameras and our cameras with auto exposure) from 11 PM to 2 AM. what is it if not aurora? thank you in advance.

hi all! my friend and i are debating over our experience earlier today -- we saw three international teams (great britain, australia, and norway (norge)) with sponsors on their jackets but seemingly unbranded jackets get off our flight with us to rovaniemi. we tried looking up any ski or snowboarding tournaments here that would be happening this week or next week, but couldn't find anything. if anyone knows what's up, it would be appreciated! we're just curious haha
