Tonight, I am reporting on a custom #tour of #Orkney (off the north coast of #Scotland) with emphasis on key #historic sites such as #Skara Brae, Ring of #Brodgar and #Stones of Stennes:www.visitorsguidetoscotland.com/2025/05/custom-tour-of-o...
On the top of a hill a line of standing stones go from left to right. They actually forms wide circle when closer to them. It’s at dusk and the sky above is red orange with the highest part still blue.
As promised in previous posts here is another standing stone circle. The Ring of Brodgar Stone Circle is an enormous ceremonial site dating back to the 3rd millennium BCE on Orkney. #Scotland #LandscapePhotography #Orkney #Brodgar #StandingStones #StoneCircle #Islands #Sunset
Tonight, I am reporting on one of #Scotland's top #prehistoric sites, namely the #Ring of #Brodgar on Orkney:www.visitorsguidetoscotland.com/2024/12/ring-of-brodgar/
More background #research for my #pollenanalysis relating to #brodgar #orkney (sponsored by @NessofBrodgar). Great guided flower walk by the marvellous Eleanor (Ranger for @welovehistory). Can highly recommend - every Sun 11am meet #ringofbrodgar car park
I spent today's #dogwalk around #brodgar photographing plants for posters of my #pollenanalysis for @NessofBrodgar #openday (30th July!). Came across this clump of #heather that mimics the profile of #hoyhills viewed across #lochofstenness - #strangebuttrue 🤩

This turf dyke leads from the Ring of Brodgar and seems to point towards the gap in the Hoy Hills. #hono #heartofneolithicorkney #hoyhills #stennessloch #ringofbrodgar #turfdyke #brodgar #orkney #orkneyislands… www.instagram.com/p/B49mv2FgpkP/
