10th place (tie)
Of The Fire

by

Edinburgh

The Red Men of Edinburgh's Beltane Fire Festival. These performers are the personification of chaos and mischief. This shot was taken of them ontop of Calton Hill, dancing around the bonfire as it roared.

It was one of my few non-Nightshot photographs from the night!

Great capture of the archaic scene. Quite scary!

Looks like a scene from Hell, Stuart - very ominous and evil-looking. Very effective shot with lots of mood.

Wow, very primitive-looking scene you captured here. Nice work. Helen
