Summer solstice 夏至

After Mangzhong, or 芒種, comes the summer solstice, or 夏至 (Xiazhi), another of the 二十四節気 24 solar terms. It literally means "extreme summer", and this is the day with the longest period of daylight.
 
 
What started out as calligraphy practice is becoming a habit, and I hope to at least finish the entire cycle of 24 terms.
