Sunshine Day one

[cornerofmadness]

So I'm doing the Sunshine challenge this year again and it couldn't have hit me at a worse time. I had already bowed out as a host because of my injury but now I have Camp nano, two wip big bangs and original stuff and a few other things I'm forgetting at the moment. So even doing little drabbles etc might be challenge. At least I got the Prodigal Son Trash exchange story posted.

This year's theme are the Greek gods and first up is Hades. While I definitely have a lot of older fic going around the underworld nothing that felt spot on so I decided to share photos that suggest the underworld to me (or to the people who created them




So how about some passage to the underworld (or rebirth) pictures

I figured why not start with passage graves

Knowth in Ireland



newgrange Ireland


Bryn Celli Ddu in Ynys Mon/Anglesey Wales

St Lythan's, Wales

Abbey graveyard, Hills of Slane, Ireland


Abbey graveyard, Hills of Slane, Ireland

The creepy bit with these two were bits of bone surfacing from the old graves


medieval monastic village, glendalough Ireland

near the Hills of Tara, Ireland


graves of a dynasty of Welsh kings, Strata Florida, Wales

monument Gettysburg battlefield

on little round top in Gettysburg if there were ever a portal to the underworld it would be in the field of death below

First off, no stress about this little challenge. If you have time and energy feel free to hop in, but don't force it out of any "obligation" as that's not what I want from anyone, bud. ♥

That said, these photos are fantastic and I really enjoyed the tour.

Oh no worries there. I fully intend to skip what I can't do. I usually enjoy writing little ficlets for this but many this July is nuts. I have to go back to the surgeon next week too

I'm glad you liked them

I am loving these images. Forests and cemeteries and abandoned structures is where it's at. :D

Thank you. I love all those things. Most of my photos are of those

There's something so peaceful about graveyards, especially when there's beautiful clear blue skies above them. They make me want to wander through them and honour those who have passed.

I have similar reactions to them
