Weird effect of the midnight sun behind an iceberg 



The midnight sun photographed at twetityminute intervals from Sunrise Point looking due south over 

 Littleton Island— well known for its marked place m Arctic history. The dip of the sun in the North depends 

 upon the latitude of the observer. At the North Pole such a line of suns would be nearly straight, that is 

 parallel with the horizon, gently rising until June 21. after that date falling until September 20, when the sun 

 would set below the horizon for the long night of six months
