Daylight Again...

            ꒌ САМ ПОЧЕТАК ДАНА, први минут среде 16. јуна са мог кухињског прозора у Аркелстату. Јутрос у 05:20 тачно. 
Наредних десет ноћи су најкраће у години. Код мене сунце је изашло на 49° североисточно, дакле само за 4° ближе истоку него северу! Око пола два ујутру небо је на чистом северу (0° = 360°) румено као да ће тамо изаћи сунце... Онда знаш да оно није далеко испод хоризонта. 
Када би летео право ка сунцу на хоризонту и наставио без промене смера, за 1200 км би прелетео Стокхолм, за 2000 км би из Финске ушао у Русију, а за 3560 км стигао у Воркуту, који за мене има једно лично значење. Кроз дугих самотних 8300 км преко тундре и севера пресекао би Сибир и стигао у Владивосток. А кроз 9250 км у Осаку у Јапану. Коначно, преко затим невероватних 9350 км све изнад Тихог океана (Микронезије, па острва Бугенвил на Соломонским острвима где је Rio Tinto изазвао грађански рат) стигао би кроз укупно 18600 км тачно у Велингтон на Новом Зеланду.

► █░▓    THE FIRST MINUTE of a new day. Sun had been away for just 7 hours and never sank really low under the horizon - at 01:30 the sky due north acquires just that same Abendrot light and color nuances above the horizon that had been displayed after the sunset at north-west. It gives the illusion that the sun will rise there, due north, in just half an hour. This phenomenon is not something you can observe in South Europe.

Daylight Again (1980-1981) is one of my favorite albums by Crosby, Stills & Nash. Actually, all the albums of CSN&Y are my favorite, but this one in particular. It is full of poetic layers and finesse. I used to listen to this LP at the middle of the night, when the mains power supply was at its cleanest and thus achieved the best possible sound from the amplifiers. The track "Southern Cross" combines the topic of astronomy and sailing with this image. 
Back to this image: The imaginary line drawn from the camera towards the sun (at 49° N.E.) and further on as the crow flies, circumpasses Stockholm in Sweden, Finland, Workuta in North Russia, big chunk of Siberia, Vladivostok at the shore of East Sea and Osaka in Japan for the first 9000 km, and then for the next staggering 9000 km above Pacific Ocean all the way to Wellington, New Zealand.
