In The Fading Evening Light


Here is another view of the Castlerigg stone circle looking across to the snow covered slopes of Helvellyn.

I am drawn back to the images from my recent day in the lake district and especially to this wonderful ancient site. 

You can see how this was getting towards the end of the day as the sun was low in the sky (off to the right) and the shadows were forming on the snowy fells.  The fading light really adds to the atmosphere of this place and I wonder what might have happened here thousands of years ago when it was first constructed.
