EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by James O. Davies captures the timeless wonder of Stonehenge, one of the world's most iconic archaeological sites. Bathed in darkness, the ancient stone circle stands tall against a dramatic night sky, its silhouette commanding attention and evoking a sense of mystery. The image was taken after twilight, when the last remnants of daylight had faded away. In this moment, a single beam of light pierces through the darkness to illuminate Stonehenge with an ethereal glow. This symbolic gesture commemorates the centenary marking the outbreak of the First World War, reminding us that even amidst conflict and chaos, history endures. Stonehenge itself is steeped in prehistoric significance and has captivated generations with its enigmatic presence. Its bronze age origins and neolithic construction make it an extraordinary testament to human ingenuity and cultural heritage. Floodlit against a darkened backdrop, Stonehenge exudes an atmospheric allure that transports viewers back in time. The encircling stones create a powerful visual impact as they stand resolute within their ancient enclosure. As a designated World Heritage Site, Stonehenge holds immense historical value for humanity as it continues to inspire awe and curiosity among archaeologists and visitors alike. James O. Davies' skillful photography beautifully captures both its grandeur and mystique – inviting us to contemplate our place within this vast tapestry of time.
