The lichen is astonishing, I have never seen lichen that colour before. Great image Gladman, this dolmen (along with Carreg Samson) will draw me back to Pembrokeshire before too long.
That really does look like a balancing act. nice one.
Nice pic chap...Funny enough I was there on Wednesday.
Did you notice that the capstone is only touching two diagonally opposite supporting pillars....I just had to see if it would move!
I also wondered whether the rich colour of the lichen had anything to do with the berries from the overhanging tree?

You did not push it!!! ;) Did you enjoy your trip and did you get to Presceli?
Of course not Moss....just gently leant on it a little bit ;o)
I did enjoy my short trip, but made even shorter by the weather and a minor emergency back home. So I didn't make it to Presceli this time but I did visit almost 20 sites and climb a (small) mountain or two in the time I was there :o)
It is a great little dolmen, isn't it? Must admit I've seen that red lichen on a few sites before, but the transfer may well have accentuated the shade a tad.
I need to do some more walking on the Preselis, too.. only spent a couple of days to date, but it's a magical range worthy of much more.
