As expected, the stone cairns I created in various spots at the edge of the woods last summer fell over during the past winter. Here is my favorite cairn, recreated for 2008.
In full color:
In black and white:
In sepia tone:
And in the negative (I love the little purple leaves):
I’m intrigued how the mood of the image changes with each photo manipulation. I shall remember these images come next winter because I know, as someone has said, that these 2008 cairns too shall pass.





These are wonderful! I love rock cairns also! After a week long backpacking trip in the grand canyon I came home with many pictures of them. I thought a coffee table book of rock cairns of the grand canyon would have been great!
Hi Lisa,
A book of rock cairns sounds like a great project.
