Maypole dancing on May day by busylady

Maypole dancing on May day

I belong to a folk dancing group called Heartsease. We dance in the market square twice on May day. Once in the morning to dance the sun up, and again in the evening to dance the sun down! No I didn't get up at 5.15 this morning - this shot was taken in the evening. I was trying to get a shot with the sun in the background but the light wasn't right. This shot with the sun behind me was the best one.
This looks so cool, I did not know this was still been done.

This is such a cool capture! What caught my attention was how the May pole mimiced the roof lines.
