[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A picture from my night trip to Avebury where the ancient stones can be seen. There is a huge stone circle which is dated back to the time of Stone Henge, and is also something to do with sultices, stars, etc. It is a strange place and for some reason has a main road running right through the middle of it. Believe it or not, it was pitch black here, but the moon was full and very bright.

On many occasions I have driven through the circle at night and it is not uncommon for the temperature to reduce suddenly a couple of degrees. And then as soon as you drive out of it, the temperature goes up again. Also, there is a lot of eery ground mist that forms but only within the circle.... Maybe something to do with ancient lay lines and the like. Interesting. Maybe a case for Mulder and Skully.

This one also is very clear and tidy.

Great effect with lighs, at the same time keeping the rest of the surroundings clear and well visible.

Good one :)
