All chance, direction, which thou canst see;
All discord, harmony not understood;
All partial evil, universal good."

Castlerigg Stone Circle with Blencathra beyond.
The Stone Circle is located near Keswick in the Lake District, Cumbria.
It is believed to have been constructed around 3200 BC, and although its original purpose remains largely unknown, possible uses include a trading post, meeting place, a religious site or an astronomical observatory.
Castleriggs stone circle is Surrounded by the fells of Skiddaw and Blencathra to its north and Castlerigg Fell, High Rigg and Clough Head to its south, this ring of 38 stones, set within a ring of mountains, has stood at Castlerigg for about 4,500 years since it was created by Neolithic farming communities. Thanks for looking
A miniature! If you’re like me, you’ll need to put on your glasses to appreciate this!
I took it with a 75-300mm lens from some distance away. These friends are gathered under the warning sign at the end of the jetty at Bearskin Neck, Rockport Massachusetts.
I couldn’t really see what they were doing, but it looked like they were having fun!

'Circles'
I thought that this may be a suitable object for this weeks Macro Mondays theme - 'Circles'.
My husband tells me that it is a fluorescent light starter.

Mushrooms sprout from a dead tree. Mother nature wastes nothing. Happy weekend my Flickr friends!
Shot with the Cosina 100mm 3.5 macro lens.
It looks like these Balsam root flowers are all facing outwards from a central point, as if they are protecting the centre. It could be because it is evening and the sun has set.
The story behind this photo:
I was walking home on Sunday afternoon when I came across this puddle of water beneath the block opposite to mine. I could see the reflection of my block very clearly in the puddle due to the direction of the light at that particular point in time.
I have always wanted to take a reflection shot and thus I hurried up to grab my camera. My vase of cut flowers was by the doorway and I decided to grab this stalk of Gerbera as well.
I tried out several shots with the Gerbera placed at different positions and shot from multiple angles. Coincidentally, it then started to drizzle and I was finally able to capture this shot of the reflection of my block and the Gerbera in addition to the concentric wavefronts produced by the rain drops on the puddle of water. I named the photo 'Circles of Life' as I hope that this photo is able to subtly represent the life within the housing block community.
The Tomnaverie Stone Cirlce near Tarland, Aberdeenshire, is thought to be about 5000 years old and the stones do form a perfect circle. To give a sense of distance, Lochnagar can be seen in the distance if you're to zoom in and view large.
