Shortest Day of the Year (Photos)

I have to admit, the short winter days have been getting to me.

But rather than getting depressed about the darkness, I thought I'd get creative about it instead. Yesterday, was the winter solstice-- shortest day of the year (The sun started setting at around 3:15 or so... ). I went around by the Thames with my camera and captured the light dissappearing in the afternoon. Using a camera always helps one see things in a different way-- this time as always. The beauty of the scene made me see the darkness a bit differently.
