This is a great picture that a friend sent me....I thought for a winter scene, this is pretty neat !
Not sure if it is real photo, but it does look unique anyway.

Caption reads :
A scene you will probably never get to see, so take a moment and enjoy God at work at the North Pole. This is the sunset at the North Pole with the moon at its closest point. And, you also see the sun below the moon. An amazing photo and not one easily duplicated.

Merry Christmas !

Along with the other comments, I might add that you"ll look long and hard to find any mountains at the north pole....or land, for that matter.

MJD: I"m thinking, north pole only has one sunset per year and it lasts for a few weeks. In summer, here in canada we call it the land of the midnight sun, as the sun never sets. On the 21st June the pole has 24 hours daylight and on 21st Dec they have 24 hours darkness. Thuss the photo was taken around Sept 21st. I expect there are weeks both at March 21st and Sept 21st, where there are varrying degrees of that photo. Some will be far more spectacular than others.

What we see here around the 45th parallel in a matter of hours, the folks at the poles have go on for weeks. I"m thinking even more spectular than what we see. Thanks for sharing the photo.

Hugh:

Did you happen to catch the northern lights last weekend? We don't get them very often here in Michigan; it was the first time three of my kids had ever seen them.

Maybe its not froze there yet I don't know.

Picture must not have been taken this timne of year for as I understand it, there's no sunrise at the North Pole this time of year up there - thus no sunsets, I suppose!
