Photographer’s Note
Here's a shot of Stonehenge taken directly into the sun. I knew it would go dark and I felt that would help promote the spiritual feeling of the place.
I was tempted to convert it into B&W but in the end I decided to keep the colour because I liked the sky.

You did it right I think, the colors of the sky make a great contrast with the dark of the stones.

Great shot. The shot has a spiritual feel to it and the sillouette looks great.

I like the way youve kept the Stonehenge in the darkness. I agree with you on not having it in black and white as well, colour and the glare is great.
