Northern rhythm

As one wonderful person said: "The feeling of time comes only when you are waiting for something." Northerners live in their own special rhythm, not associated with a sense of time. They do their daily business without looking at their watches, so a visiting photographer who needs to get somewhere by a certain time should take this into account when negotiating transportation for a specific time. Most likely you will encounter the fact that they promise you and will fulfill their promise on the appointed day, but the execution time will be completely arbitrary. This is not a bad quality, it's just other rhythms. But the sunsets and sunrises occur exactly on the clock, albeit with a shift.

In summer in the North there is a long regime time, in June the sunset is at 23:30 and the sunrise at 3:30 is normal. Therefore, we are shooting from dusk to dawn, and then, while it is not too hot, we go to bed. In the afternoon, the light is already hard and is hot, not the shooting time. For quite natural reasons, photographers enter their own rhythm with the Northern Amendment. There is some charm in this, as in the whole nature of the North.
