What it's about:
May Day, Tuesday 1 May 2007, is a big occasion in many places. In other places it is likely under the radar.
Following on from our Equinox day how about some of us making photos on May Day this year?
Mine will likely be old guys with dignity and red flags who remember the 1974 revolution, in a ramshackle parade.
From other parts of the world we may see celebrations, or parades, or a regular Tuesday.
One (1) photo per member typical of May Day wherever you are.
Respond if you're in for this. And if we get some interest we'll ask Stephen to set up a 'May Day 2007' gallery for our photos.
(I know that in Britain 'May Day' falls on Monday 7 May 2007. Go figure. If you're there feel free to photograph on that date instead. Perhaps photos of the traditional queues outside IKEA?)
