Nordic Sunshine
In spite of the picture our culture is not that of the sun. It was a culture of the North Star, but nowadays only few can show us the real North Star, Stella Polaris, in the sky. Our old myths are more about night and winter, North. - The river and our city , Oulu, is about 200 km south from the Polar Circle. This photo was taken 2.1.2010 about one o'clock.
I have not been very interested in sunsets and sunrises - but this is our daytime or all together: the morning, the day and the evening.
--- However I feel something magical in this picture, where my wife, flickr alias natans, appears to be adoring the Nordic Sunshine....
