Tour Scotland Photograph Sunset Callanish Standing Stones

Tour Scotland photograph of sunset behind Callanish Standing Stones, Isle of Lewis, Scotland. Local tradition says that giants who lived on the island refused to be converted to Christianity by Saint Kieran and were turned into stone as a punishment. Another local belief says that at sunrise on midsummer morning, the " shining one " walked along the stone avenue, " his arrival heralded by the cuckoo's call. "
