Happy Winter Solstice! The days get longer from now on… This is my watercolour of the Nebra sky disc - dating to the Bronze or Iron Age - depicting the heavens. May the next orbit of the sun hold peace, health and happiness for you. https://t.co/slE46kfURW

Today is the #WinterSolstice in the Northern Hemisphere. In #Orkney the sun rises just after 9am and sets just after 3pm giving us just over 6 hours of daylight. After today, the days grow longer. By comparison, in midsummer we get 18 hours of daylight. https://t.co/yfYtbsMEC2
