petewayne Posted January 2, 2009 Share #1 Posted January 2, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Wayland's Smithy is a Neolithic Long Barrow, dating from around 3700BC to 3400BC, which sits just off the prehistoric trackway known as The Ridgeway and a mile from Uffington Castle and The White Horse. This view was taken on a frosty winters evening looking out from the main chamber (there are 3 chambers) into the dusk light whilst sitting in the enclosed space of the burial tomb (DLux4) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iber Posted January 4, 2009 Share #3 Posted January 4, 2009 Very mystic, although frosty one might to get out of the chamber. Fine tonality. Regards Thomas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biglouis Posted January 4, 2009 Share #4 Posted January 4, 2009 Peter A little too dark for my taste but an excellent subject for photography. LouisB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thompsonkirk Posted January 5, 2009 Share #5 Posted January 5, 2009 Hi Pete - I like the tones the way they are, & find the place very moody in your depiction. Very nice shot. Kirk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roguewave Posted January 7, 2009 Share #6 Posted January 7, 2009 Pete, great capture. You communicate the mood & setting very well. I wonder if you could illuminate a bit of the walkway between the stones, without adding too much contrast, if you would not get more of the illusion of depth in this. I'm spooked!

allamande Posted January 10, 2009 Share #7 Posted January 10, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) You've created a sense of foreboding, a sense of being confounded very well! The image has so much depth and yet it feels very claustrophobic! Great work. Ece Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
petewayne Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share #8 Posted January 10, 2009 thank you for your comments.......I tried this same shot with a Canon 5dMk2 I am evaluating and of the two (bearing in mind different lighting conditions, lens quality, MP etc etc etc) I prefer this version......
