NINE STONES CLOSE

Continuing with the theme of standing Stone Circles,
I post another set of  Stones, near to the "Nine Ladies Stone circle", which
 was featured in my last post.

It was my intention, come spring, to photograph Bluebells in a fine wood, that
was not possible, but......on the way back from said wood, I made a track
to another prominent feature in the Landscape, Nine Stones Close, a small
but tall circle of Four standing stones, minus the other Five stones 
missing or removed over time.

NINE STONES CLOSE
The Sun was about to sink below the horizon, it had been the hottest day of the Year
But the long grass was still wet, and glistened in the falling Sunlight.
You may not be able to see the fine detail, in the above image, so I have
cropped out the fine Sun light and water Sun hit highlights in the image below.

The next image is of the two larger stones, covered in lichen and standing tall.
