I love this photo from today's APOD. And what a cool word for it, analemma – a Latin word meaning "the pedestal of the sundial" – which is the figure eight shape obtained by recording the position of the sun in the sky at the same time of day through the course of a year. One day I will get around to learning how to make a sundial... add to the list along with welding large pieces of metal. One day, one day.

ReplyDeletei think that you missed some days
This has to be the most beautiful picture of this phenomenon that I've seen. By the way, it's Greek, not Latin.
