Blessed Yule and merry Winter Solstice! On this the longest night, it is time to rest, reflect, and consider what new seeds you will plant for the New Year. Light a candle to call the sun, share a meal, remember those you love, here and gone.
Blessed be!

Sunset at Withins Reservoir in February
I turned around and then saw a beautiful rainbow in the sky above nearby farmland
A golden sunset at Withins Reservoir. The sun was setting behind the tree lined horizon and was reflected in the rippled water A grassy field at dusk. The sky full of large fluffy white clouds and blue sky. From the clouds a rainbow is shooting down towards a row of trees

Sorry it's another misty photo from last week 😁 i haven't had any time to take any pics this week 😂
A golden sun is rising above a frosty field. In the foreground are hedgerows with gnarly branches that are silhouettes with the light of the sun behind them. A thin layer of mist is covering the field

🔭 Jupiter and the Meteors from Gemini

Image Credit & Copyright: David Cruz

apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap25121...
Jupiter, the Solar System's ruling gas giant, is the brightest celestial beacon at the center of this composite night skyscape. The scene was constructed by selecting the 40 exposures containing meteors from about 500 exposures made on the nights of December 13 and 14, near peak activity for this year's annual Geminid meteor shower. With each selected exposure registered in the night sky above Alentejo, Portugal, planet Earth, it does look like the meteors are streaming away from Jupiter. But the apparent radiant of the Geminid meteors is actually closer to bright star Castor, in the shower's eponymous constellation Gemini. In this frame that's just a little above and left of the Solar System's most massive planet. Still, the parent body of Geminid meteors is known to be rocky, near-Earth asteroid 3200 Phaethon. And the orbit of Phaethon itself is influenced by the gravitational attraction exerted by massive Jupiter, in concert with planets of the inner Solar System.
