This is a project I've been working on recently. This is a synchronised time-lapse of both the summer solstice and winter solstice side-by-side, from Manchester:

Scott- it's brilliant and everybody should watch it; real circadian confusion watching the two side by side.


Just a thought- with GMT in the winter shots and BST in the summer, the sun's apparent longitude doesn't quite marry up. But, I love this even more than the 12 same-view monthly shots of an oak tree in a farm through the year in the aA Book of the British Countryside!

An awesome piece of work Scott. The winter solstice feels almost haunting in comparison.

From what I could see of your video Scott, June 21st looks to have been a rather better day for weather in your part of the world than it was where I am.

The summer one was 18 June and the winter one was 27 December.
