This page describes an image When the Sun Bounces
Image caption:
This image was taken at Norway's North Cape. Owing to the latitude of this location, the Sun never truly sets during the summer months, from around April to August. This results in the unique spectacle of continuous daylight, known as a polar day. This captivating series of images, taken in 2022, showcases the Sun's relentless journey across the horizon every 30 minutes. At its lowest point in the sky, the Sun does not set, but appears to bounce off the horizon. The globe on the far right in the photo stands as a sentinel, marking the northernmost point of the European continental mainland.

Image caption: ছবিটি নরওয়ের উত্তর কেপে তোলা। এই অবস্থানের অক্ষাংশের কারণে, এপ্রিল থেকে আগস্ট পর্যন্ত গ্রীষ্মের মাসগুলিতে সূর্য কখনই অস্ত যায় না। এটি একটি মেরু দিন হিসাবে পরিচিত অবিচ্ছিন্ন দিনের আলোর অনন্য দর্শনের ফলে। ২০২২ সালে তোলা ছবির এই মনোমুগ্ধকর সিরিজ, প্রতি ৩০ মিনিটে দিগন্ত জুড়ে সূর্যের নিরলস যাত্রা প্রদর্শন করে। আকাশে তার সর্বনিম্ন বিন্দুতে, সূর্য অস্ত যায় না, তবে দিগন্ত থেকে লাফিয়ে উঠতে দেখা যায়। ফটোতে একেবারে ডানদিকের গ্লোবটি একটি সেন্টিনেল হিসাবে দাঁড়িয়ে আছে, যা ইউরোপীয় মহাদেশীয় মূল ভূখণ্ডের উত্তরতম বিন্দুকে চিহ্নিত করে৷

Image caption: Vincitore del primo posto del concorso di astrofotografia IAU OAE 2023, categoria Immagini di luoghi di alba e tramonto nel corso dell'anno: Quando il Sole Rimbalza, di Milos Obert.
Il primo posto nella categoria Immagini fisse dell'alba e del tramonto nel corso dell'anno spetta a questa immagine scattata a Capo Nord in Norvegia. A causa della latitudine di questa località, il sole non tramonta mai veramente durante i mesi estivi, da aprile ad agosto circa. Ne consegue lo spettacolo unico della luce diurna continua, noto come giorno polare. Questa affascinante serie di immagini, scattate nel 2022, mostra l'incessante viaggio del Sole attraverso l'orizzonte ogni 30 minuti. Nel punto più basso del cielo, il Sole non tramonta, ma sembra rimbalzare sull'orizzonte. Il globo all'estrema destra della foto marca il punto più settentrionale della terraferma europea.

Image caption: 这张照片拍摄于挪威的北角。由于该地的纬度原因，从四月到八月的夏季，太阳从未真正落下。这就形成了独特的连续白昼现象，即所谓的极昼。这组迷人的照片拍摄于 2022 年，展示了太阳每 30 分钟穿越地平线的不懈旅程。当太阳位于天空的最低点时，它不会落下，而是看起来像是从地平线反弹回来的。照片最右边的地球就像一个哨兵，标志着欧洲大陆的最北端。
