How does the photoperiod differ between the two solstices?
Summer Solstice marks the first day of summer (June 21), thus the longest photoperiod of the year. Winter Solstice marks the first day of winter, and the sun reaches it's lowest position in the sky throughout the whole year, so we expierence the shortest photoperiod of the year.
