EDITORS COMMENTS
Captivating and enigmatic, this stunning print captures the mystical allure of Stonehenge at dawn. Bathed in the soft golden light of a rising sun, the ancient stones stand tall against the backdrop of Stonehenge Down in Amesbury, Wiltshire. As if touched by an otherworldly force, rays of sunlight delicately pierce through the openings in trilithons - those iconic stone structures that have puzzled historians and archaeologists for centuries. This image transports us to a realm where time seems suspended; it evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity about our ancestors' ingenuity and their connection with celestial forces. The interplay between light and shadow creates an ethereal atmosphere that is both hauntingly beautiful and deeply thought-provoking. Stonehenge has always been shrouded in mystery, its purpose still debated among scholars. This photograph invites us to contemplate its significance as we witness nature's collaboration with human craftsmanship. It reminds us that even amidst modernity's relentless march forward, there are remnants from our distant past that continue to captivate our imagination. James O. Davies skillfully captures not only the physical beauty but also the intangible magic surrounding this prehistoric monument. Through his lens, he invites us on a journey into "weird England" where ancient mysteries intertwine with new age sensibilities while paying homage to humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge about our origins.
