Some lovely Beltane photos...

Head on over to Necropolis Now and see some beautiful photographs taken at Mount Franklin at this year's Beltane.

Another memorable Beltaine

Here are my pictures of this years colossal birthday event. It was so strange to see the mountain covered in lush green leaves, and not just small buds on the trees and barely any grass. I don't remember seeing the ritual circle looking so green - all this rain these past two years has done wonders for the mountain. This was my 11th Beltane - I am getting very used to attending this event now, each of them different but wonderful...
