I’ve been promising a few people that I would get around to posting some photos I took of Stockholm at night, or what passes for night a week before the summer solstice. I’m jumping out of chronological sequence of my travels, so there will be a little bit of back tracking in later posts.
I rather like taking waterside twilight/night photos, and having discovered just before I left Australia that Stockholm is essentially at the top end of an archipelago of some 20,000 islands, I decided to pack my tripod just for the stop in Stockholm. The prolonged evenings at high latitudes was also something not previously experienced, and would be a novelty in itself.
By mid-June, proper late twilight only really gets going after 11pm. This created a bit of a challenge in itself, as by that stage of the evening a mix of residual jet lag combined with general travel weariness was starting to take its toll.
Anyway, I was happy that the effort was made, and I hope you will agree that the outcomes weren’t too shabby.
