Dec 8: The Longstone Cross

aka Long Tom Cross. We drive past it pretty much every time we go out, but I've never stopped to take a look before. There's no tourist info sign and I know nothing about it. I'd guess the cross symbol makes it early Christian... either that or an older pagan stone that had been 'christianised'... whatever, most folks around here think it looks like a big w*lly...!

Canon EOS 20D
1/1000s f/6.7 at 100.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Is that true or is it just a phallusy?

Good nickname for it...and from a guy who lives in SoCal where nothing is older than 150 years, this is fascinating!

LOL. I'm sure whomever created this wouldn't have appreciate the comparison. :o) Terrific shot though...
