As have a few others, thanks to Ian, I've been enjoying the aerial photograph facility on Multimap.com.
Today I have been looking at Stanton Moor, my most favourite place I the whole wide world (that I have so far visited)and home of the nine ladies stone circle. And it is, looking beautiful as ever.

Also wanted to pass this on, I came across it because Ragatala left the link in a comment on Miss Fullers' blog. I thought it was a great site.

So from aerial photos, higher and higher we go, to space... and onwards.
The world is geting bigger, smaller, wider, higher every day!

Hi Moonpie,
I don't really have the equipment to be doing it right now, but I've bookmarked the idea from you and from Ian and will check it out when I get home from holidays.
Cheers,
