42 AVEBURY - Stone Circle

42 AVEBURY - Stone Circle
No, not on a mountain, standing at the base of one the stone in the Avebury Stone Circle shown below. It's huge!!
Avebury - Stone Circle stone and tree
Maybe one of "Tolkien's Talking Trees" or maybe the Avebury wishing tree. It certainly did have lots of roots showing. (Yes, I know I'm not showing those here.)

Thanks - it was a powerful feeling standing there, so I wanted something where you could feel the strength of the stone.

Such a clever perspective.........I would have believed that to be a mountaintop!

I like the image in the PiP as well, to see the stone in context and in such a lovely landscape!

Thank you. It felt like a mountain - such strong energy.

And yes, I wanted one to try and see the perspective of how big it is - dont' know if it comes across completely, but someone standing at it would only come up about 1/10th of the height.

With this sort of subject, it's sometimes difficult to get a sense of of scale, but I think you've done a pretty good job here Laura.

If possible you could do a PiP with a person in it..........if you come across this situation again.

raingirl club has replied to Keith Burton club
Well, if you insist. *smile*
I've done the PiP. It's one from that trip - coming across it again? Probably a once in an lifetime experience for me. If/when I return to England I'll probably visit some of the many areas I've never been to instead of retracing my steps. It's a problem, because I wish I had the time and money to visit the best places over and over!
[Viewing the photo I must revise my prior statement to you, only about 3 times the height of a person - though the tree, it's almost 10 times the height of a person.]

Thanks for taking the trouble to do the PiP...........all becomes clear now!

Take care..........I hope that sometime you get the chance to come back to England to retrace your steps and make some new memories :-)

It’s a wonderful place, so much to see, so difficult to photograph because of its spread-out plan, I think. I like this transformation into mountain, appropriate because Avebury looks heavenwards in many ways.

raingirl club has replied to Steve Bucknell club
What a nice thing to say - you are right, Avebury has a lot of strength and is heavenly based in some sense.

I did find it very difficult to photograph. Maybe if I had had some different lenses to work with, but still I think it really is just meant to be experienced.
