Amazing photograph


Interesting picture. The days(daylight) are so short at either Pole that the sun only comes up a short way from the horizon and then it sets again. A scene you will probably never have the opportunity to see. This is the sunset at the North Pole with the moon at its closest point.
You also see the sun below the moon. An amazing photo and not one easily duplicated.

You could almost see Flocke gazing up at it.

Sorry dude, the photo's a sham: http://www.snopes.com/photos/natural/northpole.asp

(though I still think it looks pretty sweet, even if it is a digital creation)
