Thanks! Time really is the most important ingredient. Look at enough sunsets and sunrises with an adequate camera on hand, and every now and then a great scene will come up. After that it’s just point and shoot.

Thanks!

Thanks! Yes, it is a photo. The moth was chilling on a window after sunset. The blue dots are out of focus apron lights.

Almost forgot to get back to you about that last part: Yes it did, but this wasn’t that.

Here’s a picture I took when the smoke was making a sunset unusually red:

This was a telephoto at the horizon at around midnight. The sun was only a bit above the horizon, so the lighting was similar to a sunset/sunrise.

Here’s another picture of that same midnight, looking towards the sun.

Nah winters are beautiful up north. Sometimes also in the south, but only rarely around the southern coast.

Thanks!

You’re welcome!

Thanks! That day was beautiful.

The notations can be confusing, especially around noon and midnight. Is midnight am or pm when it’s equally distant to both the previous and the next noon? Why does 12am not follow 11am???

Where I live we use 12hr time in casual spoken language but pretty much always specify the time of day as well, like eight in the evening or twelve at midnight. But for anything written or even remotely formal, 24h time is used for obvious reasons.

Sure, but the vast majority of people live in low lying areas and even then it doesn’t shift that drastically. You need to climb a mountain to see the difference when it comes to applications of daily life.

Although now that I think about it. The same criticism applies to pretty much every definition of temperature that is based on the behaviour of matter. This also applies to Kelvin. Temperature is a property of matter and every type of matter behaves differently.

The thing to remember is that air is a great insulator. Air at 100°C isn’t nearly as bad as say water or metal at the same temperature against the skin. In fact, the air that comes in contact with the comparatively cold human skin will cool down rapidly, forming a layer of cooler air around you and lessening the sensation of heat further.

100°C is nice. And what’s a steaming session? Throwing water onto the rocks for steam every now and then is just standard operating procedure.

Water is everywhere.

Cooking, weather, etc. You are also water.

No problem, everyone else is too.

Summer is the time of the year with endless days at high latitudes. That’s when the rule “don’t eat when the sun is up” becomes a problem.

Looks like you indeed did! Nice catch!
