Congrats, steinhenge! Two points.
I'd hoped that might throw everyone, but evidently some people are aware of current world events. I really must come up with tougher material!
Suburban Sydney, 6:20 am. At dawn with the sun low in the sky, the colour
was deep red. By 8am the colour was a less intense gold/brown hue.
