It's a good photograph - that. From an Olympus AF Trip camera that eventually broke. Look carefully at the far (S) cairn - it's before the small repair I made to the top of it. And anyone showing up at that site, in the summer, would have been shown the depth of the stonework, in the peat, as a signifier of their great age.
I built a replica cairn on a hill a mile away - but it was crap. After a couple of years I photographed it, in the morning, pulled it down, scattering the stones, and photographed the empty spot in the afternoon. I need a title for the pair of pictures (which I scanned recently). These (the David's Cairns) are the real ones that that other person tries to emulate (and which I describe as A-Cones).
