1:30pm and the last sunset

With the sun now below the horizon, for the next few weeks the skies will lighten to dusk in the middle of the day, but the days will become shorter and shorter, darker and darker, until slipping in to full Polar Night with only the moonlight and auroras to light the darkness.
