After the traditional Midsummer dinner a clever young man got the brilliant idea that instead of dancing, why not bring out a rifle on the porch for target practising.

 

A few moments later my better half sat on the porch with the rifle in her hands.

Made me think of this song:

Midsummers Night Dream

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.

Whoever comes to the Istituto Linguistico Mediterraneo, arrives bringing with them their own color and their own way of living life and when they return home they bring with them a bit 'of color from all the people they have met. We are not from Italy, or Spain, or Japan, neither from Israel, or America, or Europe, neither from Africa, or Brazil or Uruguay... We are a family ... Yesterday we mixed all our colors in a party the craziest ever seen. Balloons, fancy dresses, colorful cocktails, soap bubbles and of course many colors... your colours... our colors...

 

Chi viene all'Istituto Linguistico Mediterraneo arriva portando con sé il proprio colore e il proprio modo di vivere la vita e quando torna a casa porta con sé un po' del colore di tutte le persone che ha incontrato. Noi non siamo italiani, né spagnoli, né giapponesi, né israeliani, né americani, né europei, né africani, né brasiliani, né uruguagi... Noi siamo una famiglia... Ieri abbiamo mescolato tutti i nostri colori in una festa che così pazzesca non si era mai vista. Palloncini, travestimenti, cocktail colorati, bolle di sapone e naturalmente tanti colori... i vostri colori... ‪#‎ColorParty‬ ‪#‎ColorFest‬ ‪#‎MidsummerParty‬ ‪#‎VeryILMpeople‬ ‪#‎ILMconnectingPeople‬

No Swedish Midsummer celebration without a Strawberry Cake.

As always there is rain on midsummers eve, but we fight the weather in every way we can

Midsummer's Eve on June 23, it is daylight throughout the night in our part of Norway. The trolls do not like light and they hate the sun. In my old loghouse "Fritsvold" in the valley Gudbrandsdalen we were visited twice by the trolls. Our children were hiding and drew blanket over their heads even if they had heard in fairytales that the two-headed and ugly trolls are stupid and harmless creatures.

 

Location: Forset in West Gausdal outside the town of Lillehammer.

Wonderful variety of midsummer colors and textures in bedding area near the Visitor Center at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden. This was taken on a day out with all four grandchildren.

 

I'm still working to get back to normal after power surge about two weeks ago. Determined today that all external drives with photos on them, including backup drives, survived; AC power source for one is dead, but with new transformer, the drive works and photos are there -- big relief. Checking things, shopping for replacements for ruined items, insurance, etc., have occupied a good bit of time lately. I hope to get back on Flickr more regularly, soon,

Birch are used as decorations during the early summer celebrations here, so I thought it nice to snap a photo of them during my little night walk.
