Friday pictures

A miracle has occurred: I've managed to upload some pictures and actually put them on my AOL blog. Anyway, leaving the sarcasm to one side, as you see I've gone reasonably OTT with 92 pictures. The majority are of Callanish in fading light, and the moon rising through the Callanish Stones. Last night was the Lunar Standstill, which will not occur until 2026. About fifty other people were out braving the cold evening. You'll notice that it does not really get dark - the last picture, actually shown above, was taken at 12.50 am.
