    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 ❤

    Wonderful pictures Stuart, and Sue looks right at home amongst them. I have an idea they may well have been telling her their secrets.
    Thinking of you, Sue’s family and Ani ❤

    I told Sue that one of my goals was to visit these stones – I think her spirit will be there!

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

    What a wonderful surprise this morning. I missed it yesterday 🙂 🙂 I just published a Midnight Haiku, Stuart. She’s still with us, isn’t she?

    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.

    She’s visiting all those Stones from the other side now … which is as it should be. 🙂
    How are you holding up, Stuart, you and Ani?

    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.
