Happy solstice!
Dec. 21st, 2022 09:59 pmThe shortest day of the year has come and gone. I took a photo around noon today when I was in town for an errand.
... through my windshield, because it was -30F and I didn't want to get out of the car, but the sun's reflection in the car hood has a charm all its own.
So this is as high as the sun gets at this time of year. The haze is ice fog, a far-north phenomenon caused by water vapor (from cars, buildings, etc) freezing in the air. The sky is as clear and cloudless as an inverted steel bowl.
The days start getting longer from here!
