Nightfall..

Almhöjden, the meditation grove..
.
On All Saints' Day, cemeteries in Sweden are illuminated by the glow
of hundreds and thousands of flickering candles lit by Swedes
coming to remember their dead.. It's a sight to behold..
.
From Almhöjden you can get a paranomic view of the cemetery..
Imagine the hundreds and thousands of candles flickering below you..
