I love the foggy gray haze around Stonehenge in this image. The character in the foreground seems a little bit too bright in contrast.
That’s a nice pic. Happy WW!
That’s interesting!
I love the color of the witch’s costume - it stands out from the bleak background.
That’s very interesting piece of information. I love the witch’s costume - very colorful - it stands out from the bleak background.
This picture is amazing. It spoke a thousand words alone. I love it. A little creepy. I am scared of clowns and carnivals, and at first glance it looked like a clown suit. Happy WW!
That is mystical and mysterious and wonderful.
Being tuned to the seasons and giving yearly changes mystical meaning is not new. Do you know about the Stonehenge replica at Maryhill in Washington state?
This is a unique photo both for the contrast between the hazy gray of Stonehenge in the background and the vibrant color of this participant’s costume and the subject matter. Thanks for sharing it.
I would dearly love to be there for the solstice. Some day!
Thanks for sharing it and allowing me to see it through your eyes.
My husband made it to Stonehenge at dawn one year. How I wish I could have been there!
Such color in the grey mists of Stonehenge. Happy WW! Mine was a puzzle this week, quickly solved.
Amazing.
Wow.. Nice contrast between the hazy background and the bright colored attire in the foreground. Awesome pic!
