Some photos from the coldest midsummer in 30 years.

Visited the Prästgårdsparken in Sorunda during the Midsummer celebrations. They have a very different take on how the "Midsommarstång" should look like. It's a tradition that dates back many years. Didn't stay for the dancing this time so this is as traditional as it got. But I did enjoy a bite of the famous Sorundatårta, a pastry with a very secret recipe.

It was a rainy midsummer but I managed to get this photoshoot of Samelia doing some midsummer magic and lighting a bonfire. Sun even started shining after 10pm which was nice.

Ya se ha buscado sitio nuevo xD

Looking down the Midsummer path at the bed of Ligularia Othello and through the old iron gate with the clematis vine. The Goldstrum Rudbeckia on either side here were especially nice this season. The taller plants to either side are a variety of Helianthus which is a sunflower native to the prairies out west.

Just almost forgot these photos of Emmi and Mimmi from the Midsummer day, few quick photos as I didn't have much time for myself there. These two are so much fun, I'm glad I had a little bit of dolly time there. ^^ And they are super cute!!

Arttu in midsummer 2009. It wasn't too warm, as you can see from the clothes people are wearing.

Looking forward to summer days in the garden

Midsummer festival is celebrated in Austria with a festive bonfire. This tradition is slowly being phased out due to the risk of forest fire. Here is a festive fire in the Styrian village of Stallhofen, drone photo taken with my DJI Air 3
