Solstice dancer

A woman dances in front of a large bonfire burning.

On Sunday evening I was part of the drum circle at the Olbrich Park solstice celebration. It was amazing. I took a short photo break from drumming just after the bonfire was lit and people started dancing. After the fire died down to a safe level, the crowd was invited to put their written wishes for the coming year into the fire.

Happy solstice! May all your solstice wishes come true.
