Default [OT] The northern 'glow'


An image of the northern sky, taken at midnight (local) on the summer
solstice, is available on my web site via the 'Sights' link, or here
www.buchan-meteo.org.uk/vedute.htm

It was a little cloudy so not quite 'daylight' but by no means dark.

Nice one Gianna - I used to live a few miles west of you at Auchleuchries
and I remember doing my gardening on one fine June "night" in the midst of a
run of night-shifts (I couldn't be bothered to get my body clock back to
normal). The croft was on the north side of a hill and clear skies meant I
could see enough to work until after midnight. After my "lunch" it was
already starting to get brighter again!
