Week 6: A Misty-Skied Stonehenge

Last quarter I was in England for a term abroad. It was SUCH an incredible experience, and nothing was more exciting than being able to see the things that make England so interesting and rich in history, such as Stonehenge. Stonehenge is of course an incredible mystery still, even after so many years of research and theorizing. I have always wanted to see it, in fact I wrote about my desire to see it in one of my college application essays while in High School. When I finally got to go, the day was a strange marriage of mysterious and bright, with the sky filled with grey clouds, but the sun still shining through to create a shroud across the sky. I felt exhilarated and excited, and the mystery and power of Stonehenge was heightened by the way the light behaved around it. I think that coexistence of mystery and also adventure are captured well in this photo.
