....and the pink light


Nice light today, out skiing with the dog. It feels like the light is really trickling back now, minute by minute every day. The sun comes above the horizon and back to the city streets of Tromsø next Friday... The Official 'SunDay' date.... (and this weekend, if you go somewhere up high, with clear views south...you might just get a sneak preview).
Here's a this link to a - very amateur! - video of the dog pulling me on my skis, and a taster of the light as seen today (excuse my wobbly filming and squeaky enthusiatic cries to keep the dog a-running straight! ....hope the camera-shake doesn't make you nauseous):

Always amazed by how much light there is during the dark days up there. The quality of light is fantastic too. Must be about as long as long-light gets and delivers superb tones.
