Found these stones on a walk yesterday in the Black Mountains. Not sure what they are but maybe something to with battle here many years ago http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Crug_Mawr

YOu have captured the essence here, love these hills as they are remote or quiet and very appealing for walking.

Such fantastic study in desolation possible here, Tony. The light was pretty amazing for this time of year. What a grand subject!!

A very interesting photo, Tony. Lovely remote and desolate countryside. Makes for excellent photographs. Thanks also for the link to the battle.

Thanks John,Fred,Terry and Janice for comments. The only writing I could make out was DOB, I assume date of birth. Maybe an old pets grave?

I'd love to know the history. How exciting to find these stones. Great place to walk

Another fascinating image, Tony! Those stones look like ancient grave markers - I wonder what the writing is on the left stone. Great lighting and sky!

Beautiful colors and light. You were blessed with a good sky. Foreground sones add a sense of mystery to the scene.
