Skywatch Friday Season 4 Episode 24



This picture was taken on 20th December 2009 at precisely 7.16pm, a day before the Winter Solstice. The location is Bandar Bukit Tinggi 2, Klang, Selangor, Malaysia. It was drizzling when I witnessed this beautiful sunset and luckily I had my camera with me. The next day it was rainy and dark, so there was no sunset.

This year the Winter Solstice occured at 5:47 p.m. Greenwich Mean Time Monday 21st December 2009. That is equivalent to 1:47 a.m. Tuesday 22nd December 2009, Malaysian Time. We celebrated Dong Zhi by eating tang yuan on this day.

On the winter solstice, the sun's maximum height above the horizon is at its lowest point in the sky for the year. It's the day with the fewest hours of sunlight this year.

On this Christmas Day, I like to wish everyone,

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

  6. This is a magestic sky!

    I like how you showed the siluette
    of the tree against it. I even liked your ads! Probably because we are both nature lovers. I visited your ads, hope when you visit my blog you can visit one of my sponsors too!
    We can help each other by being a "tag" team - the ads are by topics of the blog, and I think we are good match!
