Today's picture of the day is a spectacular sunset taken from Hive Beach, Burton Bradstock.
Bob Bickers captured the fiery skies about 4.20pm on Wednesday, December 2.
Nearer the Winter Solstice, the sun sets on more of an angle, drawing out the time it takes to set.
Therefore, we notice the sunset whilst at work or perhaps on our commute home, as the sun sets earlier and colours linger as we get closer to the Solstice - allowing us to enjoy them for longer.
The number of clouds in the sky and the cooler temperatures can also be more conducive to vivid sunsets.
