Huon Valley Mid-Winter Fest
In the depth of winter, uncommon people gather from far and close to celebrate the dormant apple tree being awakened and look forward to the light of harvest. From alla cross Australia people head to the Huon Valley to celebrate the Wassail ritual, the burning of effigy Big Willie, music, dancing and feasting around the fire and celebrating the darkness, to mark the start of a new era and what lies ahead....
People put a lot of efffort into their costumes at this event, it makes for great photography.
