Midnight sun and some photographic midnight oil. Light: sensational, composition: superb (breaks the rules as the book says ‘portrait’ ). Do I wish I had taken it? That’s a given. Do I wish I was on board? Yes, I can almost ‘hear’ the silence. One heck of a wilderness photo. Maybe even a brochure shot? One thing: you clipped the wing of the bird on the far right… Pedantic? Yes.
