Here's Pegasus in cloud form, or it could be a sylph - an air elemental!

Dalene McKelvey visited Avebury last summer from S. Africa. She was overwhelmed by the magic she felt while there, something I think we all feel.
Dalene captured some really interesting images. This one looks like an angel. A guardian of the stones.

Toned black and white photo of part of a large stone circle, with one large stone to the left and two smaller and more distant stones to the right. There are old buildings in the distance.

#StandingStoneSunday throwback to 2016 and my 2 devils at the Devil's stone or Devil's Chair #Avebury. One of the 2 Southern entrance stones to the Great Circle. So called due to the natural ledge or seat formed within the megalith.
I'm long overdue another visit!

An almost lozenge shaped standing stone, part of the Kennet Avenue, sits in green and yellow fields, with a small hill behind along with blue sky and a few white clouds.
One of the stones of the West Kennet Avenue.

My photo of St James, Avebury, taken just after dawn.
Staying in #Avebury: the church had an eerie reputation during the 70s & 80s. A Mrs Wilkinson reported 'a feeling of sheer malevolence and evil' near the altar. Author Graham McEwan felt a 'hostile atmosphere' and said some of his photo gear failed to work inside the church.

Another walk in the Avebury landscape today. Silbury Hill and West Kennet Long Barrow.

#FromTheVault: #AveburyStoneCircle
It's a #Neolithic henge monument containing three stone circles, around the village of #Avebury in Wiltshire.
This image was captured in 2010 during my third trip to #England.

Hope you put the clocks forward?
Feel for those poor guys at the #NationalTrust in #Avebury who spent all night putting the stones forward one hour

King Sill is said to be seen riding his horse around Silbury on moonlit nights.
There is also a headless man, seen on top of the hill. No one knows who he may be and why he is without his head! π»

Thank you! I confess that bus tours were NOT my forte! For 35 years I ran photography tours of 4 to 7 keen photographers who were always caring and responsible. My tours nearly always started in Avebury, and I would arrange for our first lunch at the Red Lion. Thanks for the video again. π Image: John Baker, www.travelimages.com #Avebury
Thank you! I wasn't aware that they were the Wishing Trees.

Avebury Stone Circle, Wiltshire, England - June 2013
A perfect Equinox pilgrimage through the Avebury landscape. π£ Wandered the Great Circle, stood in the shadow of Silbury Hill, and ended with a quiet moment at West Kennet Long Barrow before the journey home. Spring is officially here. πΏβ¨

Among the stones at Avebury, a sheep contentedly rubs its ear against one of the small concrete pillars which show the site of a missing megalith. Taken by me on a grey early morning in 2006.
It's good to see at least somebody enjoys the little concrete pillars among the stones at Avebury. Great for a bit of a scratch.

Last summer I went to the Chalklander festival in Avebury celebrating the ancient chalk landscape. I even joined the procession around the stones.
Lovely to see it in The Strollerβs Tale, and I spotted myself in the photos!

Avebury, England - March 2012
My first visit, I didn't realize I would live in England 4 yrs later & visit a lot. As often the case in England, the skies were monotone...
A most excellent alien abduction post box topper by Kerry McKenna in Avebury today

A black and white photo of a standing stone at Avebury. Beside the stone a man sits in a camping chair, wearing dark trousers and a white t-shirt with a collar. He is looking at his phone, possibly using it to listen to something, as it appears he is wearing earphones. There is a carrier bag beside the chair. The sky is cloudy, although the man's attire suggests the weather is warm. The stone itself dwarfs the man. It is as wide as it is high.
For #Standingstonesunday a summer's day photo of a chap enjoying a quiet moment at #Avebury
