Just a reminder, folks β northern winter solstice is at 16:03 CET / 15:03 UTC today, the moment at which Earthβs North Pole is maximally tilted away from the Sun ππ
That makes today the shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere, so I need to get out on the bike asap π¬π
Tell you what β take a picture at the exact moment of the solstice wherever you are & letβs see what you see πππ€
This is my view right now π
