The ancient stone circle at Callanish on the Isle of Lewis in The Outer Hebrides is over 4,000 years old and one of the oldest such structures in the world. Though smaller than Stonehenge it is considerably older and is awe-inspiring to visit. Normally seen in sunshine, here we have a photograph taken beneath an umbrella as a storm passsed overhead giving this magical place an altogether unworldly quality.

Callanish I, sometimes called the Stonehenge of the North, is on the Isle of Lewis, close to the lovely village fo Stornaway (try their mussels) in the Outer Hebrides (off Scotland). Very dramatic, particularly if you walk up from the carpark and interpretative centre (good teas and soup on the cold days), then as you crest the hill, this mass of upright stones just stuns the eye. Very hard to get the full impact of this wonderful site into a photo, so I have broken the site down into smaller images. This one has a small pool between the stones. Well worth a visit or two – I actually went 3 times in the 5 days I was in Stornaway. There are two otehr Callanish Stone Sites all close to each other, but I only managed to visit one and then fell into a bog!

Another view of Callanish, with a small pool of water in the centre. This one I have on my wall, mounted and framed. Callanish I has two other partnering sites II and III set on the moorlands off the road to Stornaway on the Isle of Lewis, outer Hebrides (off Scotland). The weather was quite changeable on this day, cloud one moment bright sun the next. / Taken on 35mm film

Callanish I from the coach carpark. The view is not quite so dramatic as you have time to assimilate the idea that there is a mass of stone standing in the middle of nowwhere. Best side is definitely from the little centre and tea room. To be found just out from Stornaway on the Isle of Lewis (off Scotland)

Ss you climb a slight incline from the carpark from the visitors centre and cafe of Callanish, on the Isle of Lewis, cresting the hill is a dense thicket of standing stones. Breathing hard at the sight, I hurried up the last bit to breathe hard from lack of breath, but it was so inspiring that the lack of breath was worth it. Film photo

A few years ago we celebrated the New Year in the distant island of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland… / These pics are the result of my Polaroid camera being exposed to sub-zero temperatures while drunk on single malt whiskey.
