As I was getting ready for bed around 3 AM (yes, we've discussed my poor sleep habits), I realized the sky was beginning to brighten with sunrise. I went downstairs, grabbed my camera and tripod, and drove a few miles to a hill overlooking Nidderdale.
I then sat in my car listening to my "shhhhhhhh" playlist, getting out every 5 or so minutes to take a picture.
Edit: I had written "10-15 minutes" but I was only out there for an hour, so that is clearly wrong.

I thought to myself, "Too bad the solstice is tomorrow, 'cause it would be cool to have sunrise pictures of the actual solstice."
Well. Imagine my delight when I read that, due to Leap Year, the solstice is actually today!
I swung by this field on my way back home and woke up the sheep. Whoops!
