Stone Circle

Winter Solstice 2011; the sun was a perfect glowing ball - not shining, or blinding. I can't do it justice with this photo, unfortunately.

Great stuff Gordon, what a sight.	Posted by thesweetcheat 22nd December 2011ce


Again, thank you both :) The image is misleading, though. My battery was low and I waited for the sun to touch the horizon - I got just three photographs. What I could see (and what is lost in dazzle in my picture) was a molten orange disc, like a burnished pendant, slowly slipping into the hill. I could look at it for a good while, anyway, without fecking up my eyes. Maybe someone more skilled than me can photograph that kind of thing. Hey, I know that they can... I've seen it here often enough :)	Posted by gjrk 23rd December 2011ce
