    Stunning images, Stuart. Can’t wait to get there.
    I was sitting in Castle Douglas wondering where you’d got to as it was one of the times Carin Holy was on scheduled.

    I love the atmosphere at Callanish – it feels so old and magical, like a portal to the past. I haven’t been there in years but in the life of a Bronze Age monument that’s probably about a second ago! I particularly love that last image, Sue looks at one with the stones as if she has become part of the mystical landscape herself. Sending hugs โค

  5. Wonderful pictures Stuart, and Sue looks right at home amongst them. I have an idea they may well have been telling her their secrets.

    That’s remarkable. One could easily miss her. I hope to one day visit there.

    She will always be with those who knew her, whether virtually or lucky enough to have known her in the flesh. Whenever I visit an ancient place, I’ll think of her. I’m sure she’ll be there.

    A gorgeous sequence of photos, Stuart. It reminds me of a passage from an essay: “And she is this Earth’s gardener. a rock gardener, a stone teller, a stone tender. She knows these rocks, every one of them; they’re her people, her children, her tribe.” Sharon Blackie.
