First Sunrise and Moonrise after the Winter Solstice

The day length today is exactly the same as yesterday. But tomorrow the day will be four seconds longer! Then comes summer.

This morning the waning crescent of the moon was a hands breadth above the horizon before the sun peeked out above the Rockport Breakwater.

Did anyone else leap out of bed at 12:30 AM when solstice occurred?  A huge clap of thunder woke me up then it really started pouring. So surprised to see the stars out when I got up that I had to go take a shot of sunrise.
