I've been pondering how to combine candles with my paper lamps - (avoiding the obvious spontaneous combination - small house fire...) I think candles in a jar might be the answer

I had a call from a journalist working in the Shetland Islands the other day. He wanted to talk about the summer I spent working up there, and specifically getting granite from a quarry on one of the islands to use in the Public Art commission for Scalloway waterfront.
The talk sent me to my box of photos to see if I had any pics of the Sea air rescue helicopter moving the stone from Hildasay to the mainland - no joy for that pic, but found these others. Good memories of an awesome place and great people. One of my favourite commissions.
