Haven't seen one less than good entry yet, and lots of impeccable ones.

Sidenote: do Scandinavians spend January in the sauna? Haven't seen anything from the usual stellar bunch in quite a while, and they would really rock this challenge.

Yeah...Pingson seems to be MIA, and you'd think he'd be rocking his three-piece suits this time of year. And if memory serves he has a few ties in the brown section of the spectrum.

We have ~4h of sunlight every day, and they're during business hours. :(

Yeah, it seems Pingson stopped posting WAYWRN's after he became a father. Hopefully, like DerekS, he'll start posting again soon.

My heart goes out to you, that is crazy. For how many weeks/months is it like that?

Well, I exaggerated a bit. In northern Sweden, where I'm originally from, it's probably less than 4 hours of sunlight every day right now. Here in Stockholm we actually have 6 hours (just checked). Sun rises around 8 and sets around 3, so it's still during business hours.

The days are starting to get longer now. In February we'll hopefully get to see the sun again :) (and of course I'm hoping for great weather next week). We live more or less in the dark during 4-5 months a year.

Lol. Very interesting. Not terribly different for me over here. Its light from about 7ish to late 4ish for me. Also no bueno for pics. When I get home its dark and its far too bring in the AM before work to get anything, and I am always rushed to head to work. Sunday is the only day I can get pics. Pretty soon though it should be doable until 6PM, and then I can get pics right after work.

So damn cold. In the teens here. What about there?
