I'm with you, Vippers old bean.
Up close, Stonehenge is incredibly powerful. More so, to me, than a nice view.

Stonehenge is little more than a few stones put together
What makes it impressive is the wondering how they managed to arrange them like that without any technology.

that's the beauty of manmade stuff
particularly stuff like that. Not only is it awesome to look at, but it is thought provoking as well.

I do enjoy a good landscape, and natural features can be pretty amazing, but in a different way to manmade.

That's the point I was originally trying to make
Great buildings, bridges or ships are massively impresive, but after the original "wow" the next reaction is to try and understand the mechanics of it. Nature is affecting at a more basic level.

'Stonehenge is little more than a few stones put together'
is perhaps the most fatuous statement I've ever read on here.
