The Sun in the mid of December - Stockholm


Stockholm’s shortest day is 21 December, 6 h 4 min 46 sec (approx.). 

Today, Stockholm sees the sun rise at 8.35 AM and disappear again at 2.47 PM, a miserly six hours, twelve minutes and nine seconds of light therapy, 

The longest day in Stockholm (21 June) stretches for 20 hours and 37 minutes, with sunrise at 3.31 AM and sunset at 9.08 PM.

The Lamp and it´s Shadow are almost at the same level
Sztokholm, róg domu naprzeciwko mojej kamienicy. Słońce w zenicie czyli w szczytowym punkcie swojego położenia, w grudniu tuż nad horyzontem.

Stockholm, corner the house opposite to my. The sun at its Zenith (the peak of its position). 
However, in the mid of December it means the sun is just above the horizon.
