Description * A * Photo with a Summer Solstice theme. Long Meg and her Daughters on Solstice Eve night.
This image perfectly captures my experience of the solstice at Long Meg. The full moon rose just after the sun had set. The people in the shot had just finished drumming the sun down, drumming like a heart beat. It was a magic night.
Unfortunately the sunrise was covered by clouds.

Looks very atmospheric Nicola. What a shame you had a cloudy dawn! I bet JackME will like this pic!

We have hundreds of lurid sunrises and sunsets, but moon magic is in a class of its own - and so is this photograph. Score? 12 out of 10 at least! So glad you didn't put the moon dead centre, because that would have killed the picture stone dead. Brilliant and everything in the right place with no enhanced colours to spoil it.

You ahve captured the mood of solstice beautifully with this picture. It could be anytime any era. A celebration of Earthsong and Earth magic.
