On the 15th of June, the sun rose on Syöte at 01:12 am, only to set again on the 29th of June, at 1:00am.

I was there from the 16th to the 18th. We got a mostly-OK weather on the 16th of June, which allowed me to make a timelapse of the almost-setting sun, followed by its rise again. Because of the clouds, the sun was virtually indistinguishable from the cloud, so I reduced the exposure time to the maximum. This led to a very dark picture during the darkest time of the day, however, it still felt like summer sun at 8am in most of the world (very bright)!

I had to switch batteries at one point, when it died down. Since the sun had anyway moved too much to the right, I also moved the camera from the balcony to our hotel's window. There was a down time of 15 minutes between the two scenes.
