Summer Solstice / Winter Solstice

If, like most readers you are in the northern hemisphere – then HAPPY SUMMER SOLSTICE.  For those who are in Sweden, where its the biggest national holiday – then Happy Midsommar! And enjoy the strawberries, dancing, and floral crowns.

 

However down here in the Southern Hemisphere its the Winter Solstice – so we are tucked in for a long night – it snowed yesterday here in Ushuaia.

That said – we get to celebrate the summer solstice in December and being in the high latitudes gives us some AMAZING sun sets (and sun rises).  So to celebrate the solstice – whichever end, here are some amazing sunsets – Enjoy (and if you want to experience them for yourself…. join us in Antarctica!)

 

Excited to take these photos too??? JOIN US IN ANTARCTICA!
