Callanish Dark Side
This is the dark side of Callanish I, which is on the Lewis Isles of the Hebrides, just off the west coast fof the top of Scotland.
The sun was blotted out for a short while, allowing this moody look.

Collaboration with Skyhorse and her poem
A Warning to Wayfarers*
Cold and grim are barrow-lands
steeped in mist and night,
hard as steel, those grasping hands
of evil barrow-wight;
Out upon the barren moors
their silent vigil keep,
crouched waiting by the barrow doors
to deal you Death’s sweet sleep.
Once brave fighting lords
here gave their all in battle,
till overthrown by Saxon hordes
whose bones now shake and rattle;
Cut down in battle-lust,
no rest in peace for them,
e’en though bodies now are dust
still they seek for Mortal men -
Unwary travellers bind they,
with spells of dark and gloom,
to walk the ancients’ byway
and meet their ghostly Doom
