WINTER SOLSTICES

Here I attempt to display as many pictures as I can of Winter solstices (usually 21st December each year) from as many different places as possible. Ideally the places should have some kind of spiritual identity, if not for everyone, for me and possibly my family. I am not religious in any registered way, just a religion that goes on in my head. I don’t try to force my religion on any one. My religion is for me and no one else, not even for my wife. I think press ganging a religion on some one destroys the whole idea of religion. I do like celebrating the solstice though, and I do believe there are lots of Gods, as the pagans did. But hey, rock’n’roll, we’re gonna cram it down your face - five for the number one band in the world - The Tubes!
As usual I didn’t feel up to travelling a long distance for the Winter Solstice 2009. A friend of mine and I nipped down to Brighton Seafront early morning and took this photo of Brighton’s East Pier.
