    Very well done Jason, many accolades will be coming your way.
    P.S. I’m thinking of buying the 10-20 Sigma myself.

  • Jason Connolly replied

    Cheers Paul, the 10-20mm is a class lens mate, a very good investment in my opinion, sometimes that is the only lens I use on a shoot…
    Glad you like it mate.

    It’s photoshopped? Totally looks real I was going to ask if you knew who carved that it looks ancient and cool.

    Nice shot . Interesting sculptures .

  • Kevin Bergen

    Kevin Bergen

    This is terrific! I was up for believing it was photoshopped—so do we know who/when it the stones were carved? Is it recent? And are these just left at the side of a lake somewhere? Such an intriguing image, and I like the way you make it a landscape with the stones almost incidental. Terrific!

  • Jason Connolly replied

    Hiya mate, no not photo shopped kevin, these are the Centenary stones commemorating 100years of the national trust.
    not sure when they were put there though…Really am pleased you like the shot,
