Alex Champion's Hexagonal Rock Earthwork with 6 Obelisks - Seventh Visit

I arrived on July 7th to find that all six obelisks have had their first coat of final paint.
Two more coats to go and they will be ready to be set into the ground.

Alex feels that the obelisks have turned out even better than he ever expected!
