Summer solstice Magic from Rautavaara

It is a magical time of the year, the midsummer solstice. In Finland we have many traditions regarding this special time, usually involving wild flowers and such... So in the spirit of some Finnish midsummer magic I am posting a few pictures I took last weekend in Rautavaara, Finland.

In these pictures there are some exquisite (a word my art teachers loved to use!) lingonberry flowers, arctic star flower and 'northern Labrador tea' or wild rosemary.

Finland is so incredibly beautiful!

Magical weekend to you all!
