A sunny visit to Frendraught stone circle in Aberdeenshire from back in 2013 for #StandingStoneSunday

The recumbent stone is sadly broken and flankers fallen.

#StoneCircle

The recumbent stone is broken and flankers fallen. Nice sunlight through the trees. This photo is 13 year ago, many of the trees have fallen since and the stones are part covered nowadays and tricky to see.

Sorry, it's been a while since my last update. June and July have been... TUMULTUOUS.

Here are the Duddo Five Stones! Roughly 4,000 years old, just north of their namesake village. A mystical and timeless place, aided by dramatic skies.

The Duddo Five Stones, a small group of ancient standing stones set on a gentle grassy hill in Northumberland, England. A narrow dirt path leads straight through the lush green field, drawing the eye towards the stones standing silhouetted against a dramatic sky filled with thick, low-hanging grey clouds. The stones appear weathered and irregular in shape, emphasising their age and historical significance, while the moody sky and open landscape evoke a sense of timelessness and mystery.

The stones are irregular in shape, covered with patches of lichen, and their rough textures and vertical grooves are clearly visible. The surrounding grass is lush and green, while the sky above is dynamic with a mix of dark, heavy clouds and patches of blue sky, casting a moody yet vibrant atmosphere over the ancient site and its expansive rural landscape in the distance.
