A friend shared this on her facebook and I thought it was such a beautiful image that I had to share it on my blog, to celebrate the Longest day. Here are a selection of pictures taken on the solstice to celebrate Summer time
Summer Skies
Flowers gathered from the Summerhouse garden, a tradition here on the Solstice.

The garden in bloom, I love the way the black bird is in shot.
The view of the windmill at Dusk
Still light at 9.45pm
My attempt at getting a shot at the Super moon, the summerhouse skies have been shrouded with cloud every evening, since the solstice, this is the best shot I managed, taken on the Friday night.
I meant to post this a yesterday but it been such a busy weekend here at the Summerhouse, more on that in my next post. I hope you enjoyed sharing my images of the Summerhouse Summer Solstice.

Your pics are gorgeous! I especially love the image of the Midsummer dog (playing a mandolin?!) and your blackbird in the garden. E x
ReplyDeletePS Actually perhaps he isn't a dog on closer inspection! May be a mountain goat? I think he technically has horns as well as ears! E x
DeleteHi E, I think it's a goat too, I love the image when I saw it, being someone who plays the mandolin badly it really appealed to me, flowers and a mandolin playing goat, what more could a girl need. It was pure luck catching the blackbird in the photo, as I was just trying to take a picture of the flowers around the patio from down on our lawn. A happy accident.
