Closeup look at moss. The blurry background displays a tree trunk.
Closeup look on Heather standing on the right. Other Heather, Pine and herbs are blurried in the background.
On bunch of light green ferns. Background is composed of, from left to right, a rock covered with moss, a small waterfall over gravels and darker ferns on rocks.

I need to go and visit some more standing stones. Was looking through photos for #StandingStoneSunday but I can't find any new ones to play with, which just isn't acceptable. This is my favourite.

#OnThisDay in #history - in 1603 Anna of Denmark became perhaps the most coronated British consort in history by celebrating her second coronation. Her first was a solo coronation as Queen of Scots in 1590 (as her husband James; was in 1567). Her second was as Queen of #England and #Ireland - her husband inheriting the throne from the last Tudor, Elizabeth I. Kept somewhat lowkey due to plague, she had her ceremonial Entry in 1604.
