This might be one of the better shots I've seen from these weird and mysterious stones of Stonehenge.
What draws my attention here more than other takes on this location, since it's litterally hundreds of thousands, is the eerie/mystic feeling that's been captured here. To use the little more darker approach and combine that with the long exposure time you have a very dark shot that, atleast for me, works very very well with the atmosphere around Stonehenge alone.
Composition wise, well, there's not much to be said other than fantastic job all over. Angle, height, light, shadow... it's all there and nicely done.
I applaud you for making this shot to be as good as I find it. Landmarks might be THE hardest thing to bring some originality towards. Great job mate!

wonderful work , I wished i could have perceived it in the same way while standing there a long time ago although it was still very majestic and captivating. As for composition , I find the piece well balanced and incredibly atmospheric! IR is a brilliant idea , may i ask what time of the day this was taken ?

Great photo
it's so hard to get any photo of Stonehenge that looks remotely original as it is one of the most photographed places in the world and instantly recognisable
Infra red is so fantastic for Megalithic monuments 
I have a few photos of the stones in IR too

Hello,
My name is Peter Sawyer and I write on behalf of Phototuts+ ([link] )
I would like to feature this image in a roundup article I am currently writing.
A link to the image, and the name of the piece would be given in the article.
Please let me know if you are ok with this ASAP as I only have a short amount of time to put the article together.
Thanks Peter

Love the black and white. Can I draw it? I am a graphite artist and would like your permission to draw this. The sky is exceptional. Give it some thought. Thanks

Thats really wild looking. Never seen a photo of the Stonehenge that looks this way. Great shot. Is that snow on the ground?

Very slow shutter speed. What kind of ND filter did you use?

No doubt the best picture I've seen of this place. Surreal, beautiful, impressive. A wonderful sky where we can detect a nice slight clouds motion, a general beautiful IR effect which enlights the greens and darks the blues, and stands out the stones. The composition is great and the monochrome option is one of the photo values, too. Congrats for this amazing work.
