Callanish Stone - I. of Lewis - Scotland Photo

Photographer’s Note

Another luck morning.
I received a text message on my mobile phone 1 hour after taking the photo: the son of one of my best friends was just born; exactely when the sun was rising.
Magic moment.

Hi;)
I like your composition and its light, well captured and seen.
Why don't you use the whole allowed size 800?

hello Frederic,
a magical and mystical image. Dramatic colours herald the dawn. The dawn light shows the textures of stone and grass. A warm welcome to the world for your friend's new son.
best regards,
Bev

Bonsoir Frédéric,
Superbe photo ! L'ambiance dans ce type de lieu doit vraiment être magique, encore plus quand il arrive l'anecdote qui t'est arrivé ! Ce site exceptionnel baigne dans une lumière magnifique. Beau travail !
Amicalement,
Olivier

Hi Fred,
This photo is brilliant. So different to mine which was taken on a grey stormy afternoon. I love the POV which shows the light hitting the wide faces of the stones and leaving the narrow edges in shadow.
It is interesting to see the same place through different people's eyes. I will certainly be paying another visit to this special place. TFS

Hi Frederic, your subject is both fascinating and beautiful. It really was taken at a magical moment, making this already mystical photo, more so. Congratulations on an excellent photo and best wishes for your friends and their newborn baby, Lisa
