I doubt if you'd notice it in daylight, but how similar the tops of those two stones are nearest to the camera. They're like receptors, waiting, and listening in the gathering gloom, tuned in to the slightest nuances in the atmosphere........ And when you think about how many years they've been doing that, imagine the energy they've gathered in. (Are they facing southeast? They'd be like giant pelota baskets, ready to catch the rising midwinter sun.) Getting carried away again!! Thanks Creators.
