Just remember to come at summer. Fall, if you fancy that. Otherwise it would be depressing.

This was a telephoto at the horizon at around midnight. The sun was only a bit above the horizon, so the lighting was similar to a sunset/sunrise.

Here's another picture of that same midnight, looking towards the sun.
