EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mystical allure of Castlerigg Stone Circle, nestled in the enchanting landscapes of Cumbria. Bathed in a soft, ethereal glow, this neolithic marvel stands as a testament to ancient civilizations and their profound connection with nature. As darkness descends upon the scene, floodlights illuminate each weathered stone, casting long shadows that dance across the grassy terrain. The stones themselves seem to come alive under this nocturnal illumination, exuding an enigmatic energy that has endured for millennia. Castlerigg Stone Circle holds an air of mystery and intrigue; its purpose shrouded in time's embrace. Believed to have been constructed over 4,500 years ago by our ancestors, it serves as a reminder of humanity's deep-rooted fascination with celestial bodies and spiritual rituals. Alun Bull skillfully captures this sacred space through his lens, capturing not only the physical grandeur but also the intangible essence that lingers within these ancient stones. His composition draws us into the heart of this prehistoric monument while inviting contemplation on our place within history. This stunning photograph invites viewers to immerse themselves in both past and present simultaneously. It serves as a visual portal connecting us with those who came before us – reminding us that even amidst modernity's hustle and bustle, traces of our ancestral heritage can still be found if we take a moment to look closely enough.
