Experimenting with a new set up. I do remember I was stopped down most, or all of the way. f/16 or maybe 22. I had a B+W IR Cut filter stacked with a Graduated ND. The sky was dark thus I rolled the ND filter so as to allow the skylight to pass and cut back on the reflective light bouncing off of the landscape. I later cringed when I realized that I was set to record only JPGs and not the RAW files. This photo is straight out of the camera and I now breathe a sigh of relief.
Avebury henge and stone circles are one of the greatest marvels of prehistoric Britain. Built and much altered during the Neolithic period, roughly between 2850 BC and 2200 BC, the henge survives as a huge circular bank and ditch, encircling an area that includes part of Avebury village. Within the henge is the largest stone circle in Britain - originally of about 100 stones - which in turn encloses two smaller stone circles.
