SWNS Pictures of the Year 2015 - One hundred of the most compelling images on the SWNS wire this year as chosen by our picture editors. The sun rises over Salisbury Plain as it's light illuminates the mist shrouding Stonehenge, Wiltshire, July 7 2015. Amateur photographer Robin Morrison made half a dozen visits to the ancient megalith, travelling over a hundred miles each time, to capture the precise lighting conditions he wanted. The normal weather patterns in the UK mean that a clear sky just a few minutes after sunrise is uncommon - a clear sky at sunrise combined with a misty morning is an extremely rare occurrence.
Stonehenge is more British than fish and chips, Cornish pasties and queuing in military fashion. However, science has (once again) proved otherwise.

And here came the Tweets, have a read, they are brilliant.
