June 22nd was the time for celebrating Midsummer in Sweden. It is a big celebration all over the country involves lovely food, flowers in the hair, and erecting a Midsummer Pole. It's a time for all the family young or old. We went to Sätra Brunn in the Sala municipality. A lovely day finshed off with a few glasses of Nubbe!
Here are some pictures. It was so busy that I just tried to capture the essence of the day. Constructive criticism most welcome as it's the only way to learn. All taken with 24-105mm
1) Thought I'd start by trying to improve photographing red things! (f 14 1/100 ISO 1250)
