As light as it gets

We are so far north here, so this is as light as it gets this time of year. Apart from these few hours of dusky daylight, it’s pitch black the rest of the day. But the sun has eventually turned, and in a few months time the forrest will explode in a bonanza in green an birdsong and the sun will shine 24 hours a day. Welcome to the land of Contrasts – Welcome to Northern-Norway.

This is the most we get from daylight this far north - just a few hours - then pitch black darkness (apart from the stars, moon and occasional Northern Lights)
