More dolmens and menhirs, with handprints, luminous fog, birds or portals, and a couple of cliffs. I think I'll try adding more painted and sculpted elements, and ghostly creatures of course

Champ Dolent Menhir
The Champ Dolent menhir has been standing in its place since the beginning of the Neolithic period. Weighing about 120 tons, it was dug from a granite quarry 4 km away. It is 9.30 m high (just over 30 feet) and has a maximum circumference of 8.70 m (c. 26 feet). The menhir was erected to commemorate a special event of some sort, not to play a part in a religious rite.

en nous, il n’y a que la lumière qui arrive par moment à se faire menhir ; la pensée parfois ; le corps lui est toujours condamné à se plier sous les arches de la vie

Troisième étape de mon périple dans l'Ouest pour retrouver des ami(e)s lointain(e)s : Christian en Bretagne, près de Brest, il y a un mois déjà.
A Plougonvelin, la Pointe Saint-Mathieu. Ici, c'est le choc de l'Histoire, entre ce blockhaus allemand de la 2ème Guerre Mondiale et ces deux menhirs, appelés le Gibet des Moines. Sur la dernière photo, ce sont apparemment des amers, servant de repère aux navires.

Dolmens of Ancient Korea
Dolmens (in Korean: koindol or chisongmyo) are simple structures made of monolithic stones erected during the late Neolithic period or Korean Bronze Age (1st millennium BCE). In ancient Korea they appear most often near villages and the archaeological finds buried within them imply that they were constructed as tombs for elite members of the community. Over 200,000 megalithic structures have been recorded in Korea with 90% of them in South Korea where they have the status of protected monuments. Most of the stones used are massive with the largest example found being 5.5 metres wide and 7.1 metres tall, and many weigh over 70 tons.
