Sunset from April of last year to March of this year./Wael Omar

This sunset was captured from a position overlooking Cairo, Egypt, around the 21st of each month from April of last year to March of this year. December 21, when the sun is farthest to the left (south), corresponds to the winter solstice. The word 'solstice' comes from Latin, combining 'sun' and 'stand still.' During the solstice, the sun appears to pause in its daily path before reversing direction. After the solstice, astronomical winter begins in the Northern Hemisphere, while summer begins in the Southern Hemisphere.
