Wasted Daylight - Stars

  

Stars is yet another amazing band out of Canada.  Pound for pound, Canada puts out the best Indie music in the world!  Most (if not all) members of Stars are also part of the band Broken Social Scene, which in turn has spun off a few excellent solo recording artists including Jason Collett and Feist.

This series of photos was started at 8:30 am this morning through about 5 pm this evening.  The bright light in the early and late photos is a street lamp.  Our sunrise in Anchorage was 9:34 am and the sun set was 3:58 pm, for a total of 6 hours 25 minutes of daylight.  We're losing 4 minutes and 11 seconds of light per day, and it's very noticeable on a weekly basis.  We'll get down to 5 hours of daylight per day on Winter Solstice, 12.21.10 (sunrise 10:30 am, sunset 3:30 pm).  The Sun stays low on the horizon during daylight, which is great if you like long shadows and half-light like I do.

Most people think this must be terrible and depressing... we actually quite like the dark nights with bright lights from the sky, decorated homes, fireplace, etc.  Many people leave up their decorative lights through Valentines Day, or beyond.  This is one reason Anchorage is sometimes called "The City of Lights".
