Midday Sunset

[Artur Stanisz]

This trip was full of extremes. It came about without any significant amount of planning and happened around the shortest and the coldest time of the year. I went to the farthest North part of Canada where you can still drive.

This photo shows mountains near the Artic Circle at around 1pm. As you can see, at that hour, the sun was almost ready to set behind the horizon. The sunset light added warmth and enriched this extreme environment.

Very cool looking Artur! Wow... 1pm and you have sunset colors on the peaks? That is so crazy and a bit mind boggling.

Just looking at this scene makes me feel cold.

That's some beautiful light on the hills you've captured.

Thanks Jim. More mind boggling fact is that it was continuous sunrise/sunset without transition.

Stark and riveting, I like the dichotomy of the frigid landscape against the warm lighting.
