you have any idea how hard it is to get a pic of this place without any people in it? it took forever
BTW if anyone visit's the site choose you tour carefully as not all are allowed access inside to the ceremonial chamber, it's a ungodly narrow passage way, I had to walk sideways and ducking slightly, there is water trickling in as well ans NO photography of any sort is allowed inside, period!

Very nice photograph. Looks like Stonehenge off in the distance. I know this is not the Critique Section, however I am looking at the possibility of cropping down from the top. Interesting thay they do not allow for picture taking, since thousands of people visit this place every year. Do they charge an admission fee?

Many thanks,

Antonio

umm they do charge, but going with a tour group is required, you can't simply show up... As far as pics inside, I suppose is because the fear of repeated flash since it's such a world heritage like site, and there use to be so many ppl walking around on the top that it was damaged so no ppl are allowed to do that either..... there are a few little out buildings at the site, sorta look like grain storage things or simple dwellings which you can shoot inside of tho, but there's nothing of much interest inside, just empty

Interesting pictures. I might of missed something, but where are these buildings located and is there any known history about them ?

these are all on the grounds of newgrange, iirc are you walk up to the entrance of the main mound this one is to the right and halfway around, as if walking around the mound itself, is off to the right, also on the grounds somewhat off in the distance you can see other mounds that have yet to be unearthed / explored / studied

This has a clean feeling to it. I like it!
