Thank you for sharing the wonderful sunset. That is beautiful. How long after sunrise does sunset occur this time of year?
I had to look up the answer, because I didn’t actually know! Here’s a good link to answer your question: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081214145127AAcIIhO. The darkness really affects some people mood-wise; for me, I just want to hibernate, but don’t seem to get depressed. In the summers, when we have a lot of light, it’s harder for me to relax; there’s a kind of prickly energy. Oddly, summer never really feels natural to me – it’s so fleeting. Cold and dark is where I’m comfortable (although I do really start to crave sunshine and warmth after a few months!). Interesting to pause and think about how something like light can affect so much!
