In Antarctica, at certain times of year, the sun moves around the horizon, never going down, and the play of color that early expeditions saw on the snow are similar to your palette -- the book is The Worst Journey in the World, and there are things in that book that you are bringing to life without even knowing it!
That must be so beautiful. Couldn't have payed me enough to have been an early explorer up there, though!
Me neither -- it was, indeed, the worst journey in the world, although there are some stunningly beautiful descriptions. The tale is from the viewpoint of those not chosen to go with Scott (thus, they survived) on the run to the pole.
