Silent wondering
Shadows of the Otherworld
Sombre silhouettes
Golden light illuminates
Arcane ancient mysteries

The photo for this week’s prompt was taken at Castlerigg stone circle in Cumbria as the sun set behind the hills. At this time of day, it is easy to see in the silhouetted stones, how they shadow the shapes of the distant hills, many of them exactly when you stand in the centre. Macrocosm and microcosm… our ancestors working on a small scale to change the greater reality?

Thank you so much to everyone who took part this week, especially as it was Christmas! I really appreciate everyone who has taken the time to create their own story fromthese prompts.

Iwish there was space to reblog all the contributions, as there are some beautiful pieces every week that I would love to reblog, but which come in after I have filled all the reblog slots.

All the posts are listed below, so please click on the links to read them and leave a comment for the author.

Thank you too, to everyone who reblogged the prompt, round up and the individual resposes.

Pingbacks do not always come through… and I can miss things too, so if you have written a post for this challenge and it does not appear in the round-up, please leave a link to your post in the comments and I will add it to the list.

A new prompt will be published later today. I will reblog as many contributions as space and time allows, as they come in… and all of them will be featured in the round-up on Thursday.

As there are usually too many contributions to reblog all of them every week, and so that we can get to know their writers, I would like to invite all writephoto regulars to come and introduce themselves on the blog as my  guest! ‘Regulars’ does not mean you have to take part every week… Click here for details

Come and join in!
