Bull Ring henge with a lot of Photoshop work. Not easy to capture the whole thing without crazy lenses or aerial photos. I like the contrast between the straight pylons and the circular henge . . .
Don’t forget to come to the open day on 30th July for as much henge related fun as you can shake a flint axe at . . .

A shot from 3rd June 2010. A touch of HDR processing from a RAW file. Had it all to myself. Spent several hours (yes hours) in the visitors centre just staring at the Ochre Horse. It is truly mesmerising.
Well worth a visit if you live within 12,000 miles !!
