Yesterday was December 21st ... the winter solstice ... the longest night of the year.That means it was our darkest day up here in the land of midnight sun (and noontime dark), and also means that the sky will start getting lighter from now on.
So that you can see what our “darkest day” looks like, I took these photos from my front door (I like blogging, but I am lazy on the weekends, so I make minimal effort sometimes!).
The photos are spaced about an hour apart, starting at 10 am.
