    Callanish Stones, Isle of Lewis

    Having stated my opinion on the landscape photography potential between these stones and the Dun Carloway Broch. It would be rude of me not to show an image of the stones.
    Whilst both are very interesting, ancient historical and photogenic sites. The standing stones are more of a challenge from a composition perspective, not to mention the amount of people who I had to make invisible

    As always your thoughts, comments and suggestions are most welcome.

    That looks like the cover photo on Van Morrison's cd, The Philosopher's Stone.

    I think the absence of people enhances the sense of mystery of the site. I really like this shot.

    That's as good a composition of the stones as I've seen. I'll remember it when I go there.
