Access to the stones is limited to small groups early on mornings of certain days; Sunday (28/09/08) was one of those days.
This is an 8 shot handheld pano, stitched with PTGui taken at 8AM (looking slightly north of east) using a Canon 40D.
We live about 45 minutes from the henge so in trying to get the family out of the house and then be there by a specified time we were concerned about the impact that the fog would have on the travel *and* whether we would actually be able to see anything! As it turned out, the fog really added to the visit and the sequence I'm uploading shows the changing conditions over about three hours... BTW the images are cropped in PS, but no other processing is being done.

This panorama is really cool. One of my favorite photos I ever took in England is of Bath Abbey taken about the same time in the morning as what this pano was taken and with the same level of fog. Maybe the best photos ever taken in England are taken before 8AM :)

Thanks Payam! The weather was really kind that morning - with the limited access to the stones, we only had this chance this year! (That's why I'll be adding a few more shots of the same subject in different lighting conditions!)

Very beautiful Kev
