sun

I read on 365 (so it must be true) that today is the midsummer solstice, rather than tomorrow (21st) as it is a leap year. So this is a bit of a repeat of an earlier shot, but this time in orange, in honour of the sun.

RIP sunshine I think! Like how you've got it floating in water.

[8yearson]

Oh yes! So simple, but grabs your attention!

[Fanny Brogden]

Great idea!! and what a wonderful day to celebrate, hope you were out at 4.15 to catch the solstice sunrise?!!!

[Kim Crisp]

Once again a simple but stunning shot Peter!

[Junan Heath]

Beautiful shot! :)

[Henri Russell]

Very creative.

[Rachel Holbrook]

clear, crisp, excellent shot - and now the days draw in - ouch!

[Danny G.]

A nice "slice" of life, huh? Well captured.

[Johanna]

Gorgeous orange! :) A very nice shot for the occasion, lovely.

[David]

Nice Peter - but I don't see how the solstice could be earlier when the year is one day longer. Should be one day later shouldn't it?

[Marie]

Very nice! Love the colour.

[GPix]

We have the Winter Solstice today!! So it's all going to bet better. As my father used to say "If I get past the shortest day I'll last another year" - and he was only wrong once!!

[Melissa]

Nice color! It looks refreshing.

[Chris]

beautiful!

[Lyn]

Aha. . now you've explained how the solstice got all mixed up in my mind! Thanks - and lovely shot!

@yrhenwr David, yes, I was confused at first. But for the leap year, yesterday would have been 21st... Got it?
