I'm curious about the moons vibrance during this years winter solstice. When moon is so large that one must ask thyself "Are we all going to die?" Seriously it is truly one annual event where the night's sky is never more beautiful.

Nothing better than a perdy night

@B3dR00m3y3z: HAPPY WINTER SOLSTICE ! :-)

Around 200 people have gathered around the ancient passage tomb at Newgrange, Co Meath to mark the Winter Solstice.

In the past few minutes, a narrow beam of sunlight broke through the opening known as the roof box and lit up the chamber of the 5,000-year-old tomb.

Built 1,000 years before the Great Pyramids of Giza, the passage tomb at Newgrange was designed and constructed by Stone Age man.

A number of other events are taking place around the country to mark the shortest day of the year.
