he stone circle at Castlerigg is situated near Keswick in Cumbria, North West England. One of around 1,300 stone circles in the British Isles and Brittany, it was constructed as a part of a megalithic tradition that lasted from 3,300 to 900 BC, during the Late Neolithic and Early Bronze Ages
Using the paintings of Georgia Gray for inspiration, I made this as a sample piece for my LQS's new Kona club. It's too big for a doll quilt anyway at 19"x28" so I'll just have to have it hang in my house. Awww....

“If one keeps loving faithfully what is really worth loving, and does not waste one's love on insignificant and unworthy and meaningless things, one will get more light by and by and grow stronger. Sometimes it is well to go into the world and converse with people, and at times one is obliged to do so, but he who would prefer to be quietly alone with his work, and who wants but very few friends, will go safest through the world and among people. And even in the most refined circles and with the best surroundings and circumstances, one must keep something of the original character of an anchorite, for other wise one has no root in oneself; one must never let the fire go out in one's soul, but keep it burning. "
-- Vincent van Gogh
Mushrooms found in front of a building on 4th St. in Santa Rosa, Sonoma County, California. Taken with my iPhone 14 Pro Max in the macro setting.
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look
Behind from where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

the sky erupts, scattered birds, regaining their bearings, surfing the shock wave, begin to circle back, eager to experience the next event. oh, the sky.

There are few stone circles in Britain in such a dramatic setting as that of Castlerigg, which overlooks the Thirlmere Valley in the Lake District National Park with the mountains of High Seat and Helvellyn as a backdrop
It is not just its location that makes this one of the most important British stone circles; considered to have been constructed about 3000 bc, it is potentially one of the earliest in the country.
when my thoughts run in circles, I say to myself: at least they will make a beautiful pattern

This stone circle dates back to 3000 BC and it is the most amazing place to be. We had perfect light and weather on this morning and both took loads of photos. There will be more...

"Our family is a circle of strength and love, with every birth and every union, the circle will grow, every joy shared adds more love, every circle faced together, makes the circle stronger."
I will be OFF for few weeks to visit my daughter, her family and to attend my grandson's university graduation commissioning. Take care everyone.💕💝

Sunset on 26-October. The view towards Wong Wiang Yai, lit. the "big [traffic] circle". Bangkok sunsets can be madly fantastic, partly due to scattering caused by poor air quality.
.
The 64m high Buddha statue visible in the distance a few km away was built since approx 2019 and completed around 2021. On 2 occasions every year the sun passes right behind in this view. I've been here previously in Feb-2023, and in July 2020 i also published a shot of the Buddha itself when it was still under construction, please feel free to check my Bangkok album.
.
At present the Buddha's head is surrounded by scaffolding with a standard green plastic sheeting as cover. During day time it obscures the shape of the sculpture, but with the setting sun directly behind it adds a remarkable quality.
.
Interestingly, the dictionary shows the phrase 'Wong Wiang' could also mean "compass", but that might imply a meaning not intended at time of shooting; however, it did influence the processing. I couldn't help but think about how sometimes we seem to rush past so many things on our journey, with so many things getting ever more colourful and inventive in their attention (and wallet) grabbing attempts, but then, where is it all heading and leading to, is there an exit from the big circle or does it keep going round and round?
.
Anyhow, at the time of shooting I was aiming to do some more Bangkok cityscapes again and 'just' hoping to capture one of these intense sunsets in a great location, and hit very lucky indeed on that day :)
.
How do you think?
