The shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere falls between the 20th and 23rd December depending on the year. In 2007 the solstice occurred on the 22nd with the period between sunrise and sunset being 7 hours 49 minutes and 40 seconds. The sun set in London at 15.54 today, 22 minutes after this picture was taken.

Oltre ad essere una bella foto dal punto di vista cromatico, la foto, secondo una mia personale iterpretazione, ritrae l'albero come via di comunicazione tra terra e cielo. complimenti.

Molti ringraziamenti genovagerry! Non parlo italiano in modo da spero questa traduzione da senso di marche di altavista. Best wishes from the UK, purdey

A striking shot. Interestingly, the sun looks to be about as high above the horizon as it was at midnight here around summer solstice, as can be seen on this picture.
