I fogot about how bright it really is in Sweden during the summer. We live in southern Sweden so it’s not as bright as up north where the sun never sets. The sun sets but it’s never really really dark.
This picture was snapped at about 10:30pm Below is a picture taken at midnight. It was difficult to snap a good picture of it but you can tell on the sky that it’s still pretty bright out. It makes it difficult to sleep. Our neighbors that are on vacation seems to have a good time outside talking, laughing, and grilling.

That is very interesting. Do you see any stars then when it is not very dark? I would think that the moon is lovely in the twilight sky. I like how you did the two pictures from the exact same spot. Groovy

No stars this time of year. The moon is almost full right now. It’s very yellow and close, big that is! Has a warm glow to it. I’ll try to capture it some time soon.

Such a different sky from ours. I can see how it would be difficult to get to sleep. The full moon is my favorite. Bet yours is lovely!
