Winter Solstice



Days of 'little sun'





It is almost the winter solstice...
The sun is at its lowest point of the year 
and has moved from the east to the south: 
it has gone well past Radda 
and this morning rose from behind the hillside to our south. 
Tomorrow is the turning point, when the sun hesitates 
momentarily 
and then begins its return towards east once more.

The first photo was taken about half an hour before the sun appeared. 
Radda can be seen on the skyline to the left
