Lindern Herrensand Huenensteine submitted by Martin_L on 28th Dec 2009. Winter Solstice Night 2009. One of the comparatively rare occasions to admire the site slightly snowbound. This definitely helped to console myself from overclouded sky: Neither sunrise nor sunset were visible from this part of the world.
Close-up of the south-western chamber part.
