North Pole Sunset: UPDATE
Today, a email arrived in my mailbox with photo of this.
the caption in the email says:
A scene you will probably never get to see, so take a moment and enjoy.
This is the sunset at the North Pole with the moon at its closest point.
And, you also see the sun below the moon. An amazing photo and not one
easily duplicated. You may want to save this and pass on to others.
AFter wondering how someone get hold of this since in my prevous entry where I found the same image from flickr which was removed by 603sabre so I decided to google for it and learned that it was listed in snope so here it is:
http://www.snopes.com/photos/natural/northpole.asp it is still undetermined either real or fake. but I came across a discussion forum at "Bad Astronomy and Universe Today Forum" where they discussed the same photo above:

It's probably fake but it looked awesome though!
