Winter solstice


The shortest day of the year and Grey Granite can't help feeling, that, despite the 14" of snow in the garden, the year has turned and things will gradually improve. This optimism is probably because light levels are so important to her.

    This morning I saw this coloured ball in the sky. The moon?

    Today there was the extraordinary coinciding of a lunar eclipse, presumably what you saw, and the solstice.
    R and I looked but failed to see.
