Summer Solstice 2012 in photos: Stone Henge and other trees

by | 21st, June 2012

IT’S June 21, which means it’s time for Britain Summer Solstice. Time, then, to head off to Stonehenge, Wiltshire, to dance in the moist air and  live life as it once was on Salisbury Plain, before electricity was harnessed and light was enabled at the flick of a switch. Humanity is great. We even hug trees:

People gather during the summer solstice at Stonehenge, near Salisbury Thursday, June 21, 2012. Rain-sodden crowds welcomed a spectacularly rainy summer solstice at Stonehenge in true British fashion Thursday: With stoicism and wit. But through the wind and rain, drummers inside the ancient stone circle kept up their thumping rhythm, new age pagans kept up their chaotic dance, and visitors kept up their sense of humor.
