  3. A sculpture representing a gate along the German-Polish border on the Isle of Usedom looks like a striding trilithon, one leg in each nation! #Stonehenge

    A rook perches on a wooden stump in front of Stonehenge, where large numbers of rooks and jackdaws make their nests amongst the stones.

  5. Een ander soort van #Landschapspijn. In 2024 hadden ze het nog over het #Stonehenge van Nederland. Nu blijkt er inderdaad niets meer over.

    Voor een lege blokkendoos.

  7. The Moon Takes the Bow: The Longest Fight in the Sky, Scored on Love, Fear, Respect, and Attention

    Two fighters have been circling each other since before anyone kept records, and the purse has never changed hands: the human gaze. In one corner burns a furnace so vast that something like a million Earths could rattle around inside it, the engine behind every green leaf and every heartbeat on this planet. In the other corner floats a charcoal-colored rock, airless and dead, throwing back about twelve percent of the light that hits it. On paper the match is a slaughter. In practice the rock has been taking rounds for ten thousand years, and the strangest fact on the whole card is a matter of scheduling, since only one of these two shows up for both shifts. […]

  8. Stonehenge, au coucher du soleil.
    Version entièrement gratuite, puisqu'il y a un sentier, une route historique anglaise, qui longe le site, et avec sa tente ou son véhicule, on peut se garer sur la piste qui mène à cette petite route. On est juste à 10m plus loin que ceux qui paient le tarif grand public (ou ceux qui paient le tarif VIP pour aller au milieu des pierres, encore un autre débat, ça).
    Mais bref, une manière simple et économique de profiter du site car non limité dans le temps.

  11. Une équipe archéologique a découvert deux piquets en bois non loin de Stonehenge, qu'ils précèdent d'environ 500 ans. Ils pourraient nous renseigner sur les rites pratiqués dans la région avant l'édification du monument.

  12. Mit Stonehenge fand die erste Lokalrunde ihren Abschluss.
    Drei Bands, drei völlig unterschiedliche Ansätze und trotzdem das gleiche Ziel - gute Laune fürs Wochenende.
    Sommer am Kiez steht für große Namen, aber genauso für die lokale Szene. Genau deshalb gehört die Lokalrunde für mich zu den spannendsten Terminen im Line-up am Helmut-Haller-Platz. Dort bekommen Bands aus der Region die Bühne, die sie verdienen.

  16. I promised slightly closer to home this week: here’s one I took from the air on the way back from the Isle of Wight earlier this year.
    Next week: even closer!

  17. We walked the ancient crooked paths to #StoneHenge and being the person I am, while all others concentrated on the stones, I saw a Ylfen ring (faerie ring).

    I stood for sometime, watching the stone circle from another age as to guarded this tiny ring of magic by its side; brothers in enchantment.
