I know what you mean, the site is fascinating and being a dark sky location is great for stars as well, but in daylight the stones are rather underwhelming. Great idea to liven them up with this!
Thank you. Yeah I have always wanted to visit. If anyone fancies a little star gazing, then it really quite a good spot for such a central location.

Nice pic, but you do realize it's going to end up on some UFO loon's site as evidence of an alien visitation?
Ha, well if it does, we all know the truth at least

For sure, and it's a location that I have wanted to visit for a while, and to be honest its only around 50 min drive from where I live so really no excuses. Regard dark skies it's not too bad to be honest, surprising for its location. I think it will be a repeat visit just for that opportunity in the future. Do like Wales for the convenience of Dark Skies though

Nicely done, and to great effect. I hope no sacrifices were involved! Phil
Ha no! but my knowledge of black magic is a little rusty so I wasn't sure if running in a clockwise direction would be better or worse than running anti clockwise, in the end I just got on with it and hoped nothing odd happened

The Rollright Stones is an ancient site located on the Oxfordshire & Warwickshire border in England. The complex consists of three main elements, The Kings Men stone circle, the King Stone, and the Whispering Knights.

I have always wanted to visit this ancient site and last night i finally had the chance. Looking of other photography taken here, I knew it would be a challenge to get a shot that was more than just a snap shot of the location.

Still, with a little bit of imagination, at 2am and to the amusement of others I decided to run around the stones like loon. Thankfully for all who witnessed it I kept my clothes on!

Lovely feeling in that photograph. Whenever I see hay bales I see photo opportunities, but haven't come up with anything quite as satisfying as this yet.
Thank you Sry, determination to get out and get the shot I suppose. But I know what you mean, I have been procrastinating about this for the past 3 years lol. Finally this year (last month) I pulled my thumb out and got on with it
