יום ארוך.png

The day when half of the northern hemisphere faces the sun, and is exposed to sunlight for longer hours each day. More light hours and lasting longer than the other days of the year. The result: more sunlight hits the space during the day and thus more focused and smaller shadow areas are obtained because the area is brighter.

Winter solstice / December 21

The day with the fewest hours of light, and the longest night of the year. The result: less sunlight hits the space during the day and thus smoother and brighter shadow areas are obtained because the area is darker.
