Poulnabrone Dolmen by John Quinn
Star Trail shot of the Poulnabrone Dolmen. This shot was taken with a full moon and captures the movement of the stars accross the sky over a 12 minute period.
Dating to the Neolithic period, (4200 BC to 2900 BC) this portal tomb in the Burren consists of a twelve foot tabular capstone supported by two slender portal stones, and bordered by a nearby cairn. Excavations in 1985 discovered the remains of at least 22 adults and children buried in the tomb
