This picture was made from the Dempster highway in the Yukon at the Arctic Circle. It was only about 2 hours away from sunset, so the sun was very low in the sky. We've upgraded our image processing software, and are happy to report that this image took much less time to prepare than our previous images. Now it's time to look for something to ease the preparation of the web page itself!
