Sunset in a light cloud-cover and calm sea taken from the ice breaker Kapitan Dranitsyn (1980) off Cambridge Bay, Victoria Island. The sun is obscured by the cloud. The shutter may have jammed as the top and bottom 1.5cm is black.

Ivy Sharp mentioned the sunset in her account: 'There was an exceptional sunset this evening (midnight) but a strong wind blows.'
