May 21: Utö – bench tour 2
We continued our tour as the sun set and the twilight started to deepen.
3054

Along the shore from the western end of Kattrumpan toward the village.
3056

The dock at its alarmingly jaunty angle.
3062

Near-sunset over the Havshotel.
3073

Church sunset.
3075

Sun about to be shrouded by clouds as we continue To the Lighthouse.
3077

We took another look at the gallery; the underlighting seemed much stronger at that point because of the dimmed daylight.
3080

Hellstairs!
3086

The lighthouse rendered deep blue in the late light.
3089

The lighthouse bench nestled into a rock just to the south, with the sun, almost aligned with the bench, now at 10:05 PM actually setting on the horizon: my last sunset in Finland (to date).
3094

Wave diffraction patterns offshore.
3099

I always wonder how far away those still-illuminated clouds just above the horizon are in a maritime sunset.
3100

Pilot station layer cake.
3103

The secret stairs down to the village road, now with Added Twilight Mystery.
3104

The evening view from the village bench.
3106

A roof almost meeting the ground, right nearby.
3114

Back at the hostel courtyard.
3115

Another, extra-contemplative bench, out on a pier near the hotel.
3122

A land-art-like array of old concrete posts and other masses.
3125

ALL the towers, peeking over the building on the south side of the courtyard.
3126

The sauna building in the fading light.
3127

Twilight through the slat shed, 10:40 PM.
