A short walk near Hebden Bridge which starts at 'PECKET WELL', where there is a stone War Memorial...
I discovered a couple of years ago that it looks as though it is in 'alignment' with Heptonstall Church (middle) and Stoodley Pike Monument (far distance), the latter of which was re-built to celebrate the end of the Napoleonic wars in Europe 1815.
(Ironically I took this picc on the eve of the Summer solstice too, but am unaware of any 'connection' - perhaps just 'happenstance' :-)
Walking Pal, John, sidles past foxgloves and nettles... We didn't walk the whole distance by any means (only about 5 miles) and my other (walking) Pal, Dennis was close behind (HWW :-)
The sites at Carnac form the largest collection of megalithic stones in the world. More than 3,000 prehistoric standing stones were hewn from local rock and erected by the early Celtic people of Brittany. The alignments are believed to be related to astronomical observations at the solstices. This image is of an impressive upright among several smaller stones of the Ménec alignment.
Hope you have a lovely weekend! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind support.

Ancient people respected the sun. In fact they worshipped it as the source of life. So in many places observatories were set up to track the movements of the sun. Stonehenge is quite possibly such a place.
This photograph wasn't planned, but as soon as I saw what was happening I set up the tripod to capture the sun in perfect alignment.
* REMEMBERING JOHN OLSEN (1928-2023)
Today we learned that Australia's greatest living artist is alive no more. John Olsen has died at the age of 95. The grand old man of Australian painting left a huge legacy, and I for one would like to pay him a tribute (painters, even abstract ones, have always influenced me more than photographers). Several years ago I posted a photograph of his 1964 painting "Me the Gardener" in the QVMAG Collection. www.flickr.com/photos/luminosity7/49616768471/in/album-72...
He was most definitely the last of a great generation of Modernists that included Sidney Nolan, Arthur Boyd and Margaret Olley. www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/collection/artists/olsen-john/
Bits of very cheap jewellery, you align these and put a wire through them. One would be 1 inch long. I placed it on pink paper.
My first time try to shoot the moonrise. The moon will align with the Statue of Liberty during full moon in May and June every year. When the moon just rise to the correct alignment, it looks like the Statue of Liberty is holding the Moon.
This is a single shot, not photoshopped

This alignment of arches and chapels, along the aisle of the church of Saint Bavo, shows the harmony and beauty of Gothic art. It will also close this small series and I we’ll have to choose the next theme to share!
Alignment in the Meudon Observatory Park in Ile de France
Alignement dans le Parc de l'Observatoire de Meudon en Ile de France
... somehow these all got aligned there on my desk at work ... and had my camera around for a ... snap :)
The light on the desk from the computer monitor.
The milky way core rides above the Watchman in Zion National Park. It is against the rules to shoot from the bridge in Zion. So I walked the river to find a nice alignment. Lighting is also not allowed in the park, So the light on the watchman is actually light pollution for the town of Springdale. The image is an exposure blend . Two images of different exposures are blended together. That way the highlights are not blown out and the shadows still get detail. This was shot last year during the Nightscaper Conference

This image came together really nicely - there is a flow from bottom right to top left - starting with the small pebble, supporting the bigger rock, the flow of rocks leads to water flowing out to see, the silhoutte of the Surfer heading out towards the breaking wave - moody skies, this has to be one of my favourite images taken so far this year.
On the evening after solstice the setting crescent moon was aligned in the western sky with Mars and Venus. Venus is the brightest natural object in the sky after the Moon and seen here at Porth Nanven after sunset.
The moon sets on the Christmas Star, took a few shots to get the right alignment on this. The star is atop a distant cell phone tower and the moon aligns with it.
