The sunset glinting on the water, taken from the ice breaker Kapitan Dranitsyn (1980) off Cambridge Bay, Victoria Island. The image is slightly dark and the sun, on the horizon, has a halo around it due to the camera being pointed directly at it.

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