This is what happened last night. This is the Northern Hemisphere’s first summer solstice full moon since 1967. A great reason to celebrate and have a toast or five, isn't it?

 

It has also been called Strawberry Moon as this article in the Independent suggests.

Gorgeous evening sun on Midsummer's Day......

You've seen this barn in rather different circumstances....

hff!

I took this picture some time ago when I was riding inline skates around Zurich Airport. There was a dovecote in an allotment. The pigeons did their flight exercises every day as a flock. I have no idea why you are allowed to fly a whole flock of pigeons in the approach path of an airport, but not a single small drone.

I like the picture very much and I think that I have succeeded in taking a master shot. But I'm under no illusions that it will generate a lot of faves. As my recently released AI-generated image shows, another genre is rewarded by the audience

In the line of sunset light.

Dragonfly in midsummer brightness...

 

Thanks for stopping by; hoping you're enjoying the last of summer/winter....Happy Weekend!....Pat...xo

My childhood scenery from beautiful, deep and clear water lake Vitträsk. This was taken 9pm and the sun was still high. I used 10 stop ND filter and this was 30sec exposure.

A shot from my last trip to London in June just to break up the flowers a bit!

 

I took this from the Millennium Bridge- if you've been on this bridge you will know it shakes, a lot. People walking, running, skateboarding or just breathing, will make you, your camera and tripod quite unsteady. So if this isn't quite as sharp as it could be, that is why. Nothing at all to do with the wine I'd had to pass the time WAITING (waiting....waiting....) for it to get dark (whose idea was it to do a nighttime shoot on the longest day of the year?!)

Did Zhuangzi dream in black and white?

Along the roads of summer..

A barley field with poppies under a cloudy sky in the Pellenz near Kruft, one of the highlights of my photo summer 2020 (of course because of the tree on the horizon).

BEST VIEWED LARGE!!

 

We had a real bad storm here in Kent last night with 2" hailstones and at sunrise this morning we had mist and fog, this is the marshes close to home which was completely flooded but topping that was a fabulous sky and those reflections!

 

In this season of abundant mirth,

May Midsummer bless our Earth,

And as the days grow long and bright,

May love and joy be our guiding light.

Midsummer bloom of ‘Noazami’.

Cirsium japonicum (Japanese thistle, 'Noazami' in Japanese) is a spring- (and summer-) flowering thistle native to Japan.

Today I had a lovely day celebrating the last day of Midsummer and my birthday. Good food with my beautiful family and a visit to the beautiful flower garden fulfilled the day.

 

Idag hade jag en underbar sista dag av midsommar och även min födelsedag. God mat med min family på Skybar och ett besök till den underbara slottsträdgården gjorde att min dag gill i uppfyllelse.

Today is midsummers eve in Sweden. Wish you all a nice weekend!

It is an old custom to light fires on the lake shores on Midsummer night. One of the original purposes of bonfires has been to keep evil spirits away.
