Hello - today it's All Hellows Day - so I decided to show a contemplative motive ...

Just at the stroke of midnight - what a magic moment to be at the North-Cape right at Midsummer ...

This is a second shot from there - I hope you also enjoy to look at this one.

The sun is hiding behind these dramatic clouds - and it's so amazing to see the blue and golden Parts of the sky.

Have a nice day, bye.

Yes, beautiful, Sabine, maybe the spot in the middle takes a little from our attention, but it sure looks like a gate to Heaven....

Hello Sabine,
For some reason I never went to North Cape, even if the rest of Europe apparantly do!
I notice this is shot one hour before midnight, so this time of year you'll have a wonderful midnight sun... Seems like you were blessed with all right weather too!
Strong colours, fine composition!
Greetings,
Pablo -

wowwwww...wonderful shot..TFS

Amazing sunset. beautiful colors.
Well done.

Hi Sabine,
Just marvelous...what else can I say. The intense golden colors of the sun contrasting with the dark clouds and the beautiful blue sky. The Nordkap statue is beautifully positioned. A very moody and dramatic photo of such a special moment and such a special place.

Hi!
A splendid shot, the silhouette of the globe is carefully positioned, the sky dramatic with the light touch.
Seb

Wonderful, dramatic image. One simple well placed subject to anchor it. Very well done!

Regards,
Joe

Phew best skyscape I have seen on Treklens yet.
I am very very impressed.I didnt realise with the iso
set so low (50) in these kind of lighting conditions you can get this kind of effect.
was there any pp work?
I particularly like how the blue somehow looks like the azure of day sky...
out of points but I will be back
s.

points as prom.

Hi Sabine...a dramatic shot and well composed and taken. Lovely rich colours and a superb midnight light from the Northern skies. Well done and TFS,
David

Wow this is something !..Great colours you have capture here.. just the horizon needs some attention.. as mentioned... but well done on this capture.

Greetings from New Zealand
Dawn

Way to go Wishnu!

You have been doing an execptional job lately.
This one is quite an exemple of it. The globe makes it, otherwise, just an othe picture of a sun set/rise...However, the sky is quite spectacular.

Cheers!

Hi Sabine, this is just fantastic! What a superb sunset with original colours!

The soft golden glow on the water and the very dark blue in the sky and that metal earth on the cliff. Very original!

Great work! Yan :)

Beautifully presented image with an interesting title along with a commentary note. Golden hued horrizon and partly visible deep blue sky looks fantastic.

Thanks for sharing an image with a globe in it.

Strange sky, wonderful threatening colours and good composition.

Hi Sabine what a great shot i have been twice in this place one with a bus and one with a bicycle beautiful colours and mood tfs bye Shimon

i wish there was more detail on that globe thing on the right, but spectacular composition nonetheless...! the way you positioned the elements (the clouds formation, the light, the silhoutte of the earth) all work for me. cheers!
