      The above shows what happens if you photograph the path of the Sun from   
      two different latitudes. Both images were made near the time of the   
       December solstice and portray the movement of the Sun in the sky   
      during a 24-hour period. The one on the left (December 26, 2021) was   
      captured from the  Italian Concordia Antarctic Base, where at this   
      time of year the Sun never sets.   
      
      The photo on the right (December 20, 2016) was taken in Tuscany, Italy   
      and shows the Sun and also twilight and star trails about the North   
      Celestial Pole. At Italian latitudes, and everywhere in the   
      mid-latitudes and tropics, the Sun always rises and sets. In the   
      Northern Hemisphere, only at latitudes higher than the  Arctic   
      Circle (approximately 66.34 degrees north latitude) will the Sun remain   
      below the horizon or above the horizon for an entire 24-hour period.   
      
      Photo details: Both shots were taken using with Photoshop's Photomerge   
      feature, and once the panoramas were complete, Photoshop's Polar   
      Coordinate / Units Distort filter was used for the spherical   
      projection.
