Most Alaskans are probably lying if they say they have no difficulty sleeping during the summer. These photos were taken at 12.30a.m, and there’s easily another hour or so of this twilight period before the sun will finally dip below the horizon.

By 5a.m, it will be back. These are the houses around the lake silhouetted to bring the sky colours out. It’s no-where near this dark.

Not sure how the “red sky at night, sailor’s delight” idea works, since technically it’s already morning… But, hopefully today’s warm weather is a sign of things to come :)
