Living on my boat somewhere on the river avon near bath England. I have enjoyed photos for many years, I have bought myself a d80 and now I find it dosen’t leave my side. I travel around the South West of England in my work and love to find new places and subjects to shoot.

    What a fiery sky. But pray, enlighten us as well, to your moment of truth when you were revealed as to why the stones were erected!! :-) If for any purpose other other than to study the heavens.

    One of the most magical photos ever of the subject. I was there years ago on a sunny day and what a difference the skies make!! The colors and cloud formations are heavenly.

    I went to Stonehenge years ago on a rainy, gray
    day. Just an impressive place. This photo with
    the wild sky is amazing. Can’t imagine those
    sky colors in England.
