TGIF- Happy midday shadows

 

SUN SET

The overhead shadow changes from were you are on the earth and on the longest day of the year it is slightly more vertical then it was. As north America starts to move from straight up and down to the winter solstice at a 23 degree tilt away from the sun the shadows or midday changes.

You may want to take note of the shadows and enjoy this first weekend after summer solstice while seeking shade.

Editors Note: The tilt of the earth is 23 degrees from stand up to and from.
