Solstice Stone.

The sun glides to its southern most point of the year on or around the 21st of December. The southern summer solstice marks the true start of warmer weather. On that evening, the sun will set directly on top of the solstice stone. Photo details: Canon 350D, ISO 400, 1/250th second exposure with a Sigma 18-125mm DC lens @ f-11.
