Dalmuir Park, Clydebank, Scotland, UK. 21st December, 2017. The annual December solstice took place around the World today at 16:28 GMT. Fog descended over Greater Glasgow throughout the afternoon, making for eerie scenes. On this, the shortest day of the year, the Sun is directly above the Tropic of Capricorn in the Southern Hemisphere. In other words, the North Pole is tilted farthest away from the Sun, with the fewest hours of sunlight. Iain McGuinness / Alamy Live News
