COSMIC MESSAGE
An analemma is the figure-8 curve you get when you mark the Sun's position at the same time each day throughout the year. This image combines 47 separate exposures, taken over a year, to show the Sun's path above the ancient Temple of Olympian Zeus in Athens, Greece. The foreground shows the standing Corinthian columns of the temple.
