A while back I posted a photo here as we approached Newgrange with additional information about it. This is what it looks like as one enters. The artwork on the rock was done by the original builders of Newgrange over 5,000 years ago. (I'm sure the handrails were added much later) Bru na Boine, Ireland; September, 2016.

Are you sure, Ted? ( ☺ ☺ ☺ ).

From cultural/historical point of view: a mighty interesting capture.
From photographical point of view: a usual good and well treated image.

This structure is huge and there doesn't look like there is any mortar, yet the stones are perfectly fitted together. That's amazing! I do wonder how they got the stones up on the top layers. The stones in front look like the have some kind of cosmological pattern.

Anyway, the editing really brings out the color and textures. Very nice!

It is a true artwork to set stonest together such as this. I saw a guy on TV who does this for living. More talent than I.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
