Stonehenge in a State of Surreal with Ravens


Photographer:  Silas - photograph was not modified for detail but the light was changed in various ways to soften the image and move it toward surreal to get away from the starkness of the Summer sunlight.  The Ravens struck me as the modern Kings and Queens.


Stonehenge is not so far away from Salisbury Cathedral and I stopped for both on the same day.  It has been a long-time dream to stand in front of Stonehenge and the feeling was as mystical as you could ever hope.  I do mean specifically you since it may not seem such an attraction relative to the exciting vibe of London but do be assured it is magical.  Stonehenge has stood since the land was rife with magic.


The photographic vignettes at Stonehenge and Salisbury Cathedral are nostalgic but they feel right since they're brief and get directly into the moment of it.  You're advised to give a good many moments should you ever go to try to feel the Presence of the builders over the last five thousand years.

Ithaka really started with my time in Greece but that time looked generally logical as things will likely suck without any money but the time was still marvelously revelatory.  It was after that when I struck out on Mister Toad's Wild Ride to Scotland and that's when the trips went king hell crazy but in the most extraordinary ways.  Almost all of that is covered in Ithaka in 2013 and you may enjoy that part since it was almost unpredictable for what would happen next.
