Last night saw the summer solstice - the longest day of the year. It's wonderful being as far north as Papa Stronsay is, to experience the light through the night:
The Sun set at about 10:45pm.
10:48pm.
11:00pm.
Midnight and still not dark!
12:02am.
12:03am.
Thank you for the wonderful photos. I lived in northern Alberta and in Alaska, the latter being God's Country for sure, and Midsummer was fantastic. I love the big sky. If you had nuns, I could come up for retreat sometime. Please consider...
ReplyDeleteGod bless you all. I am in London for the summer and see a little patch of sky out of my window, which as a girl from the country is a bit of a challenge not to be missing the Big Sky...However, there is beauty everywhere in God's world and the four stars I can see will become very special to me this summer.
In Peru is winter solstice- the shortest day of the year....
