A beautiful, sunny day, today. Had a picnic next to the beach in Maidens, looking across Maidenhead Bay and the Firth of Clyde.
A couple of families were having a paddle in the water and some little kids were, at points, fully submersed! It was nice and warm BUT NOT THAT WARM! 20°C is not tropical! They did have a lot of fun, though.
Here, Gaoda Bheinn (Goat Fell) is the highest point, 874m.

SOLSTICE
À tous mes amis Flickr
Le solstice d’hiver approche. Ici, c’est un moment où le froid impose une pause propice à porter le regard plus loin, au-delà des nuages, là où tout a commencé.
Le temps est venu de vous saluer tous et de vous remercier de partager votre passion pour la photographie et l’art. Merci de votre appui, certains d’entre-vous depuis de nombreuses années. Un remerciement très spécial à Irina Dimulescu et à Catherine Péré qui m’ont encouragé à aller de l’avant avec mon projet - Le Monde de Poësia - un projet qui verra le jour, je l’espère, en 2023.
Je vous souhaite paix et sérénité en cette fin d’année. Joyeuses Fêtes mes amis.
Patrice, Québec

SOLSTICE
To all my Flickr friends
The winter solstice is approaching. Here, it's a moment when the cold imposes a break suitable to looking further, beyond the clouds, where it all began.
The time has come to greet you all and thank you for sharing your passion for photography and art. Thank you for your support, some of you for many years. A very special thank you to Irina Dimulescu and Catherine Péré who encouraged me to move forward with my project - The Lands of Poësia - a project that will see the light of day, I hope, in 2023.
I wish you peace and serenity in the end of the year. Happy Holidays my friends.
Patrice, Quebec

Full moon rises over Chemical Beach, Seaham on the Summer solstice.
The longest day of the year draws towards its close, with Titlington Pike (233m, 764ft) on the right of shot (and the Cheviots just off shot to the left).
Winter Solstice day last year was a frosty winter delight and I've realised that I only shared one image from it so here's another.
It's been a great year out with my camera, although challenging in other ways!
Thank you all for the friendship, humour and support.
Wherever you are, have a wonderful sparkly Christmas!

Les gens me disent que le solstice d'hiver est la journée la plus sombre de l’année, la plus symbolique de l’hiver qui refroidi nos âmes…
Dommage pour eux.
Pourquoi ne font-ils pas comme moi?
En hiver, je garde simplement ma lumière intérieure allumée plus longtemps

People tell me that winter solstice is the gloomiest day of the year, the most symbolic for winter that freezes our souls. . .
Too bad for them.
Why not do like me?
In winter, I keep my inner light lit longer . . .

Wanted to rework this image that I had previously posted. This image was taken during last winter's solstice. I had intended that morning to drive to Portage to take sunrise photos. It took me longer to drive than expected. I ended up having to pull over to this rest stop along the Seward highway.
Le solstice d’hiver arrive, et je n’ai pas vu l’automne passer.
Je n’ai pas voyagé. Je n’ai ni dessiné, ni photographié. J’ai peu fréquenté mes amis.
Cet automne, j’ai surtout marché. Des centaines de kilomètres. Des milliers de pas. Marcher pour respirer, pour confier mon chagrin à l’air frais, laisser mes pensées s’apaiser et tenter, jour après jour, de faire les choix les plus justes.
Ma famille et moi avons traversé un tourbillon d’épreuves, de deuils et de fragilités. J’ai puisé ma force là où je le pouvais, avançant du mieux que je savais, un pas à la fois.
On dit que la lumière se trouve au bout du chemin. Je veux croire qu’elle reviendra avec le solstice d’hiver, qu’elle dissipera les derniers jours sombres d’un automne lourd et éprouvant. Car ce solstice est aussi une naissance : celle d’une lumière nouvelle, discrète d’abord, mais persistante.
Je me laisserai à nouveau inspirer par cette clarté, par la nature que j’aime tant, accueillant, dans la sérénité, les jours qui recommencent lentement à grandir.
À vous, amis Flickr, je souhaite une année 2026 baignée de lumière. Quant à moi, je marche encore, à mon rythme, fidèle à cette lueur fragile qui revient et éclaire doucement le chemin du retour.

Yesterday was the shortest day of the year and from now on light slowly returns.
Things will be getting better, so take care, you all - and stay safe through these troubling times.

Wishing you all a Wondrous Winter, and a revival of joy in the New Year!
“Morning has come, arise and greet the day!
Dance with joy and sing a song of gladness! …
A new day dawns, once more the gift is giv’n.
Wonder fills this moment shared together. …
Open our eyes to see that life abounds;
open hearts to welcome it among us.
The light of love here shines upon each face.
May it bring faith to guide our journey home.”
—Jason Shelton, Morning Has Come

the winter solstice invites us to connect with nature in a quiet yet deep way. may you experience many moments of ordinary beauty on this day!
A blended shot with Lanyon Quoit in the foreground and the Milky Way an hour later. The orange glow on the left is the remains of the north-westerly sunset at midnight.
I was concentrating so much on the bright starry sky that I didn't notice the ground fog creeping in over the darkness and by the time I had finished I could barely find the path out to the road.

Midwinter - 21. December - Beginning of Winter: The shortest day - the longest night

Worldwide, interpretation of the event has varied from culture to culture, but most cultures have held a recognition of rebirth, involving holidays, festivals, gatherings, rituals or other celebrations around that time.

As the plant hellebore flowers under the snow - a sign of hope, a miracle of nature. You can show us and say that life goes on even under a blanket of pain, suffering and sorrow.
Interestingly, around the Christmas rose a similar legend, like the Poinsettia climbs. This legend tells how a shepherd went to Bethlehem, but could not bring any gift because of its poverty. Since it was winter not even grow flowers. He was very sad about it, but his tears turned to the earth in hellebores, he brought with him as a gift.
The Christmas rose, also called thistle or black hellebore, opened in December with its subtle creamy white, sometimes pink or greenish, bell-shaped goblets the Blütenreigen. "For me, the Christmas rose is the epitome of everything beautiful and innocent"
Christmas roses as a symbol of purity and innocence.

Als Pflanze blüht die Christrose unter dem Schnee - ein Zeichen der Hoffnung, ein Wunder der Natur. Sie kann uns zeigen und sagen, dass das Leben weiter geht auch unter einer Decke von Schmerz, Leid und Trauer.
Interessant ist, dass sich um die Christrose eine ähnliche Legende, wie um den Weihnachtsstern rankt. Diese Legende erzählt, wie ein Hirte nach Betlehem ging, jedoch aufgrund seiner Armut kein Geschenk mitbringen konnte. Da es Winter war wuchsen noch nicht einmal Blumen. Er war sehr traurig darüber, aber seine Tränen verwandelten sich auf der Erde in Christrosen, die er als Geschenk mitbrachte.
Die Christrose, auch Schwarze Nieswurz oder Eberwurz genannt, eröffnet im Dezember mit ihren dezenten cremeweißen, zum Teil rosafarbenen oder grünlichen, glockenförmigen Kelchen den Blütenreigen. "Für mich ist die Christrose der Inbegriff alles Schönen und Unschuldigen"
Christrosen als Symbol für die Reinheit und Unschuld.

Hottest day of the year, hit 34 degrees, poor poppies at Falmer needed a drink. Still beautiful would like to revisit when we've had rain. A stunning and peaceful evening

This is another flower that is new to me this year. It is on the "threatened" list of flowers and has a limited distribution.
Today (21 December 2018) is the longest night and shortest day in the UK - tomorrow the days get longer and we can start looking forward to Spring.

The Winter Solstice, also called Yule, is the shortest day and the longest night of the year. It occurs on 21 December in 2016 in the Northern Hemisphere, and marks the beginning of a gradual process of shortening nights and lengthening days.
Solstice moon rise impression. While sitting at the Beachcomber Restaurant on Saint Augustine Beach, FL, USA. A crazy and strange night and month. At my favorite place to eat in St Augustine. Good food, kids playground and dog friendly. It is placed right on the beach and very laid back...
