Actually Rune, you're post has got me thinking. I was out on this morning trying to get a sunrise shot of the nearby Barrow, a site I have ben studying for a few years now,and the third day in a row I had tried, but it was too cloudy again. I had given up and was on my way home when I spotted some Ravens flitting about above this stone, so I stopped to try and get a photo of them, otherwise I would have been gone. I hung around for a while while the Ravens played games with me,and then they left. As I then drove past the stone the Sun broke through and sent these beams out. I jumped out and grabbed these few shots, then made a dash back to the barrow. As I did the clouds came back and the light had gone.
Maybe it's time for me to focus my attention more on this Cist now, it is quite intriguing.
