The second set, from Flickr, looks like it could be a witches' rite of some kind. It appears to be BTW (British Traditional Wicca) from the 70's or 80's though, judging from the hair styles. The ritual nudity and robes otherwise would not be unusual at all. Many Wiccan groups do wear regular street clothes or full robes during ritual though; the nudity is hardly required. Many of our priests and priestesses -- how shall I say it? -- look best when covered. By the way, holding a beer bottle would not be all that unusual either in Wiccan rites. A good time overall.
