Cool shot. New Camera, Eh? Congradulations on the 30D..

Bit confused by some of your settings. iso 100 usually for sharpness, f 2.8 shallow DOF,speed 1/800 th ? The stone up close has so much texture available along with the frosty grass. Ah well maybe you like it that way. Great idea anyway John.

Great idea and like the shot. Glad to see someone else up early taking superb pics.

In future millenia, anthropologists will be able to decode this challenging, cryptic stone depiction of an apparent humanoid - but today, we are left only to wonder at it's meaning. What *is* that strange object drawn in his hand? Was it a weapon? Something for gathering food? Or perhaps, a strange ritualistic device for making whoopie.

it looks really cold there! But Avebury is such a magic place...

I like your "primitive" stone age pose, if I dare to call it that
