The piles were a good 20 feet height. When I was taking the pictures, Stonehenge came to mind, as did Avebury, which is only a couple of miles from where this shot was taken. This is definitely one for fibre based paper and hanging on the wall I think. regards Mark - ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jem Kime" <realcamera@tiscali.co.uk> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 10:27 AM Subject: Re: [Leica] More pics for comment or critique > Mark, > I like the straw bales very much.
