Sunset visit to Stonehenge Aoteaora, a modern clonehenge with several solar alignments . The obelisk top aligns to the south celestial pole and cats a shadow that marks our an an analemma on the ground. Outlying stones match the horizon in height when viewed from the centre, and mark the solstices and equinoxes. #Astronomy #Clonehenge #Aotearoa #StoneCircles @Icarosity

For today’s #StandingStoneSunday here’s a photo from last October’s visit to the amazing Callanish Stones on the Isle of Lewis in #Scotland. This is a view of the chambered tomb which was added later after the main stones were erected. Amazingly the site was buried under two meters (six feet) of peat for several thousand years before the stones and site were rediscovered in 1857. It is a fantastic place to visit. #standingstones #stonecircles #neolithic #OhCon
