The Geograph British Isles project aims to collect a geographically representative photograph for every square kilometre of the British Isles and you can be part of it.
What is Geographing?
* It's a game - how many grid squares will you contribute?
* It's a geography project for the people
* It's a national photography project
* It's a good excuse to get out more!
* It's a free and open online community project for all

There are plenty of ancient sites not yet contributed.

Indeed, but read the T&Cs first.
I've contributed a couple of hundred photos, but they're not too interested in 'close-ups' of sites so much as general views. Read the description of what a 'geograph' actually is...
Good idea though!

Yes, the pics are supposed to be representative of the geography of that 1km grid square. I guess people reading this don't just restrict themselves to photographing stones, so here's somewhere where your work might be appreciated (?)
