Stonehenge Sunrise
My plan was to photograph full moon setting over Stonehenge but construction fencing, newly erected by English Heritage, blocked that view. I therefore circled the monument to the opposite side and awaited the rising sun. Serendipity in the form of a pleasingly spaced flock of sheep provided my foreground. As the sun's rays highlighted wisps of mist around the sheep, I knew I had my image.
