Standing Stones
I am working my way though the archives, and intend to post the odd item from time to time, I have now reached 2019,
This is the Cleitir Stone Circle also called Callanish 8 which is just over the bridge to Great Bernera Island, Outer Hebrides. The waterway is Loch Rog,
An investigation in 2010 concluded that the stones form a solar observatory and the tallest stone is 9 ft high

This one is fascinating......the stone look amazing considering how long they've been there and there's something very spiritual about them. The fit into the surrounding landscape beautifully.
I supposed we'll never know for certain why they are there and what they were used for but for me that just adds to the charm.
A cracking shot sir!
