*sob* How dark is it in Alaska in September?

Hi :) I just did a little research on daylight hours in Alaska during September, and learned that there are 13 hours of daylight (roughly) in September. My question is, does the dark hours interfere with viewing during scenic cruising in September? (maybe dumb question, but I am feverishly searching the answer) :P

Note to self, read the whole thread before replying :o

I was thinking about this and actually there may be some advantages when it comes to wildlife. Many animals bed down during the day and are only out at dusk & dawn so being in port those times of day could get your more than when its bright, sunny & hot like we had in July up in the Yukon.
