Looking for the sun.

Blue sky today and still possible to see the sun up in the mountain. I had to get out and enjoy the light, silence and the setting sun. The hike was in a terrain with much ups and downs so we used snowshoes. They are easier to walk with in hilly terrain. Where I live the sun is now disappeared until february next year. The goal was a small peak with view towards the vest and the setting sun. Today the sun disappear under the horizon around 2 o'clock.

The next 5 pictures is from the top. It was a nice experience to feel direct sunlight in the face, even if it does not heat much.

old traces of someone who has worn snowshoes. The wind has blown away loose snow and the tracks stand out like small islands.

Have a nice day.

Beautiful pictures, I was wondering is it nowadays sun stays so low in your area? I like the picture with a deep cloud where you also can see the peaks of mountains :)

Thank you. The sun is now above the horizon around 4 hours, but because of the mountains there must be open landscape or up in the mountains to see the sun. Within a couple of week the sun is complete under the horizon and only reflecting in the sky. During this time we have polar night. This period there is no real/clear daylight, it is as "dusk" around 4-5 hour and dark around 14:00.
