Winter Solstice
The term 'solstice' derives from the Latin word 'solstitium', meaning 'Sun standing still'. On this day the Sun seems to stand still at the Tropic of Capricorn and then reverses its direction as it reaches its southernmost position as seen from the Earth.
Sometime between 12/20 and 12/23 the shortest day of the year takes place. And, this solstice image I created reminds me about how lucky we all are to experience long and short days. Well, just because.
Just another few days before Christmas.
