The spring haven't arrived yet to Finland. No blooming to be seen so i haven't been very active with photography lately. This LE shot is from last summer. Sadly my Canon 50D's noise control even with 400 iso is crappy and i have hard time to create pleasing results with it. Even with photoshop i cant seem to fix the problems often. I now days mainly just stick to 50d+sigma 50mm f.1.4 combo, which i love. Take care!
This photo shows a part of the standing stones and doesn't cover the whole site.
The Calanais Standing Stones are an extraordinary cross-shaped setting of stones erected 5,000 years ago. They predate England’s famous Stonehenge monument, and were an important place for ritual activity for at least 2,000 years.
We don’t know why the standing stones at Calanais were erected, but our best guess is that it was a kind of astronomical observatory.
Patrick Ashmore, who excavated at Calanais in the early 1980s writes: ‘The most attractive explanation… is that every 18.6 years, the moon skims especially low over the southern hills. It seems to dance along them, like a great god visiting the earth. Knowledge and prediction of this heavenly event gave earthly authority to those who watched the skies.’

"Leave no stone unturned. Deeply explore the beauty of your life."
Quote - Neil Gaiman
My absence lasted a little longer than expected. Back from vacation, unexpected work on the garden turned out to be possible again....stones from the driveway removed and replaced with gravel for the parking space and borders for new plants.
Hope that now finally a quiet time will come. Happy start of your week ;-))

In a quiet moment...
Feel your oneness with earth and imagine you have roots grounding in the earth,
while your spirit still soars with the breeze into the vastness of the universe.
Zen is more of an attitude than a belief.
Zen is the peace that arises through the unity of oneself with a wholeness, a being that is of a different nature than oneself.
Zen means being aware of the oneness of oneself with the world and everything in it.
Zen means living in the present and experiencing it through and through.
Zen means being free from the distractions and deceptive conflicts of the material world.
Zen means being in tune with the universal course of things.
Zen is to fully experience the present and to enjoy the fundamental miracle of life itself.

A fantastic tower of stones on a beach by the sea in winter, an atmosphere difficult to express with a photograph.
We were extremely fortunate to see this fantastic bird...we were sitting in the car on the Salisbury Plain looking at some young skylarks on the ground and it flew in to within about 40 metres and proceeded to feast on invertebrates in the soil for about 10 minutes...spectacular!
Castlerigg Stone Circle.. taking shots to avoid people.. too many people for me, although I half expected to see druids or something seeing it was the September equinox ;-)

On a hot Summer's day this is the best resting place across the pond listening the waterfall and birds singing,
It took 4 people to lift the massive Moss-rock on its footing.
