Skywatch Friday - the long evenings
The long June evenings are here, and it's hard to go to bed, even when you know you've got an early start next day. One of the things I'll look forward to when I (eventually) retire is enjoying everything about the month of June. Especially the almost round the clock daylight. I'll savour every minute of these long days, and hibernate in the winter.
In the meantime, the sunset on 21 June drew us down to the sea at Newhaven Harbour. These shots were taken around 10.30 p.m. It was actually lighter than it appears - if I'd had a newspaper with me I could have read it quite comfortably.
More skies from around the world are at Skywatch Friday.
beautiful - i love June too. It may be hard to go to bed but the sunny mornings and singing birds mean that it's much easier to get up too. Who wants to stay in bed when then sun shines! (and this year so far so good with summer!)

ReplyDeleteI remember those long days from when I lived in Scotland. It was hard to get the kids to go to bed! The days are longer here too but it still gets dark about 9.
