A snow-covered ceremonial stone circle stretches across a wide, open landscape under a pale lavender winter sky. In the foreground, two long, narrow stones lie parallel to one another, heavily crusted with frost and snow, forming a shallow channel that draws the eye forward like a deliberate pathway. The snow around them is smooth and untouched, softening the ground into a quiet, unbroken plane. Beyond this foreground, tall, irregular standing stones rise from the snow in a loose arc, their dark, weathered surfaces edged with ice. At the center of the arrangement, a taller stone structure frames the low winter sun, which flares brightly through a narrow opening, casting a warm golden burst against the cold tones of the scene. The light creates subtle shadows that stretch across the snow, emphasizing alignment and depth. In the distance, low hills fade into the horizon beneath the pastel sky. The atmosphere feels still and reverent, combining ancient human presence with the hush of deep winter, as if the landscape itself is pausing to witness the returning light.

A close-up photograph of an ancient arched stone gateway featuring a heavy iron portcullis. A blizzard is in progress, with blurred white snowflakes streaking across the frame. Significant snow has accumulated on the right side of the horizontal metal bars, highlighting the geometric pattern of the gate. The weathered masonry of the archway looks cold and aged, evoking a sense of historical mystery and a harsh winter atmosphere.

I don't believe in 'orbs' personally. I think they are just lens flare, camera glitches, dust particles and insects.

But......spooky orb!

Been to Avebury this morning and then lunch in Devizes. Lovely time had. Expected to return home to the news that Simons has joined #Spurs, but still not confirmed. Here's hoping it's done soon, and here's some nice pics of the Avebury visit. #megaliths #ancientstones

I've finally joined @stoneclub.bsky.social I've been visiting lots of ancient stones with Ed over the past few years, so it made sense.

Let's rock! 🪨🗿

Two ancient sculpted stone eyes with lapis lazuli for pupils float above a mesopotamian landscape of water and palm trees.

Two ancient sculpted stone eyes with lapis lazuli for pupils float above a mesopotamian landscape of water and palm trees.

The deep blue of lapis has carried meaning for millennia. In They Stole Our Eyes, my friend Hala Al-Salman reclaims that ancient gaze. It reminds me why I’m drawn to old stones... for the stories they’ve witnessed.

Through the hollow of the ancient stone, the veil thinned. I saw not the world, but what waits beneath it.

All sunlit was the earth I trod,
The heavens were frankest blue;
But secret as the thoughts of God
The stones of Stanton Drew.

The Mên-an-Tol ('Stone of the Hole') has a 1.2m holed stone with a 51cm hole, flanked by two 1.3m stones. Part of a 19-stone ancient circle, its purpose and position are still a mystery, possibly linked to a burial mound. #mênantol #ancientstonebothering #ancientstones #menantol #cornwall
