The Great Short Shadow Contest!

 

 

Any and all submissions welcome!

 

Tomorrow is the official shortest day, highest sun, but plus or minus a day or two won’t make any difference.  The best time of day to take the shot will be about noon, standard time, 1pm daylight.  Even better than timing it by the clock though will be timing it by the compass.  Time zones are just approximations, plus or minus a half hour or so.  At the point your shadow is aligned perfectly north/south, will be the shortest shadow at your exact location.  My best time is at 1:30.

 

For the long shadow contest in December, I was 7 feet tall!


 

I had taken my picture slightly after the north/south sun-peak of the day though.
