The Nine Maidens Stone Circle - a photo on Flickriver

Another motif I captured pretty much every time we pass is the lovely Nine Maidens Bronze Age stone circle near Belstone. This time round we had this dramatic transition between gorgeous sunlight and sinister dark rain clouds in the back. We made it back to the car just in time without getting completely soaked.

For some more impressions of that fabulous circular walk at Belstone, Northern Dartmoor National Park, feel free to have a look at the video I made: youtu.be/7XgS45of6iM
