PHOTO NOT STONEHENGE THE PRESELI ARE KNOWN AS THE SOURCE OF THE BLUESTONE MEGAL

Description: EXTRA INFOPHOTO NOT STONEHENGE THE PRESELI ARE KNOWN AS THE SOURCE OF THE BLUESTONE MEGALITHS USED AT STONEHENGE. STONEHENGE IS OFTEN THOUGHT OF AS A KIND OF NEOLITHIC OBSERVATORY WITH CERTAIN STONES LINING UP WITH THE POINT OF THE MIDSUMMER SUNRISE. MAYBE. WHEN WALKING THE PRESELI RIDGE ONE CAN GET CARRIED AWAY WITH THESE IDEAS IN MIND. THE CERRIGMARCHOGION ON THE EASTERN SLOPE OF FOEL FEDDAU ARE A COLLECTION OF VERY ANGULAR NATURAL ROCK OUTCROPS DIPPING STEEPLY TOWARDS THE SOUTH.OF COURSE THAT DOESN'T HAVE TO STOP US FROM LINING THEM UP AND PONDER THE DEEPER MEANING; IT'S SUCH FUN. LOOKING THROUGH THE NOTCH OF THE OUTCROP IN THE FOREGROUND THE VIEW ALIGNS THROUGH A SIMILAR NOTCH ON ANOTHER OUTCROP NEARBY. IN THE DISTANCE ON THE SAME LINE OF SIGHT IS THE ANCIENT CAIRN OF CARN BICA. UNFORTUNATELY THE LINE OF SIGHT IS ONLY EIGHT DEGREES NORTH OF EAST SO NOT QUITE FAR ENOUGH FOR MIDSUMMER SUNRISE. PERHAPS THE DRUIDS GAVE UP IN FRUSTRATION GIVEN THE TOPOGRAPHY OF WALES AND MOVED THEIR OBSERVATORY TO FLATTER WILTSHIRE. MAYBE. 2010 COPYRIGHT (Photograph and text in Extra Info) RUDI WINTER PHOTO PAPER THICKNESS NORMAL PHOTOGRAPH THICKNESS NOTES REF NO RWVB-1320 PHOTO SIZE SIZE 6 X 4 inches CONDITION: SOME CROPPING OR WHITE LINES TOP/BOTTOM MAY OCCUR DUE TO PHOTO RATIO WATERMARK IF PRESENT ON THE IMAGE WILL NOT APPEAR ON ITEM SENT TO YOU: NOTES This is a print and supply service for an image that is COPYRIGHT (Photograph and text in Extra Info) Rudi Winter obtained from GEOGRAPH and licensed for reuse under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0 Generic License MANY OTHER ITEMS ARE BEING ADDED TO MY SHOP DAILY
