| BRYN CADER FANER |
My favourite circle is the one shown here. It is Bryn Cader Faner and is situated in the county of Gwynedd in Wales. The nearest town is Portmadog.
This is a Bronze Age site and of the original 30 stones 15 remain standing. The stones are about 6ft in height and lean outwards.
It is best to approach the stones from the south and then you wll get this superb view which seems to resemble a Crown of Thorns.

What a great shot of them. The sepia works well in this image.
I've been to this place a couple of times and I love the Rhinogau mountains. You were blessed with a wonderful sky that mimics the stones so well and makes it look as if the stone circle is emitting it's own energy.
Great image ! looks nearly as if it would move. Surely able to stand out against and throughout time. Please have a good Friday.

I also like the area very much- I've spent a number of great backpacking trips in the Rhinogau mountains.
