Solstice Light



This morning’s sunrise marked the southernmost point of the sun at the horizon.  The big clump of trees on the left across the water is due east, so you can see how far south the sun is.



While the sunrise itself wasn’t particularly remarkable for anything but its astronomical position, the low angle of the light in the sky and on the Cutler Park trail made for some beautiful images:







I hope you have a super Solstice, happy Hanukkah, merry Christmas, or whatever holiday you celebrate at this time of year!
