more natural beauty

siderea found this beautiful video of time-lapse photography by Terje Srgjerd of the Arctic light, just before the midnight sun but when it never quite gets dark. This is stunning, and if you click through to his Vimeo page you'll find links to two others too:

Wow! The video of Helsinki was great. The kids really enjoyed seeing the difference between the solstices.

Sometimes I wonder what it would have been like to grow up with all of the information in the world at my fingertips. Anytime our kids have a question, we can answer or illustrate it with a few keystrokes. It's amazing.

Yeah, it would have been pretty different! When I was a kid the search path was approximately: look in our encyclopedia or other in-home references; ask my father; ask a relevant teacher (if applicable and it wasn't summer); queue it up for the next trip to our small local library (we went about once a week, or more in the summer); decide how badly I really wanted to know if all that failed.
