City hall silhouette after midnight

We have already midnight sun here in Tornio even the sun is not visible full 24 hours. Now sun is above the horizon about 23 hours. Only few more days and then it will be 24.

I took this photo few days ago at 1:35AM, when sun was behind the buildings. I also used settings in the camera, where the color saturation is stronger and photo is darker. So in real life the view is not so dark at all like in this photo.

Beautiful Midnight Sky in Tornio

Yesterday evening the sky was very beautiful at midnight. I played with the camera settings so, that the colors looks even stronger and more dramatic. I took this photo 17min after midnight and there was still so much light.

Midnight View

I took this picture yesterday on midnight from my balcony. Sky was quite dark and cloudy, but northern sky was still clear. Reflection of the windows give something special to the picture and feeling.

Place:   Tornio, Finland
Target: Midnight View
Date:    4th of August, 2016

Camera: Canon Powershot G15
Shot: 1/60 sec. f/2.2 11.817mm ISO400

Editing: Little bit more saturation and color temperature, cropping

It's easy to see that days are already much shorter than one month ago.
