Shooting advice

Avebury is at its best during the autumn and winter. With low-lying autumn mists, fog and a touch of frost the whole site can take on a wonderful ethereal mood and atmosphere. There will also be significantly fewer people. The whole site has views and angles from every direction but there is very little elevation so most shots will be from within the circles and relatively close- up. Sunrise and shooting into the light would be my favoured time of day. As the main road passes right through the site, watch out for road and fences in your shots and unsightly concrete markers showing where stones once stood.
