January Light: tealight
Not the usual meaning of tealight! An interesting use of tea-pots at the café at Applecross House. Linked to Becky’s January Squares challenge: words ending in light.
January Light: fire dancers
Dancing with firelight in Glasgow’s Botanic Gardens a few years ago. Part of Becky’s January Light Squares challenge – words ending in light.
January Light: Chinese lanterns
Edinburgh’s Christmas festivities are a rich source of light! Here we have lantern-light from last year’s Giant Lanterns of China event. Linked to Becky’s January Squares challenge – words ending in light.
January Light: all the fun of the fair
Edinburgh’s Christmas Fair lit up against the sky at twilight. Linked to Becky’s January Squares Challenge – words ending in light.
January Light: Nick Cave
Spotlight on Nick Cave – I have lost count of the number of his concerts I have attended, this being the last one, at Glasgow’s SSE Hydro in September 2017. It’s not great quality, taken on a phone in the dark, but I love it. It’s the best photo either of us has ever managed at a gig (so it’s probably John’s) and it really captures the moment. We both got to touch him as he crowd-surfed that evening, and I was almost trampled underfoot at the end when a few fans were allowed onto the stage. Happy days! He’s coming to Glasgow again in May, and guess who has tickets?

January Light: lightship
Another guiding-light today – not a lighthouse, but a lightship. North Carr is the last remaining Scottish lightship and has been moored in Dundee since 2007. Linked to Becky’s square photography challenge, January Light, words ending in light.
January Light: lighthouse
Becky’s January Squares challenge is words ending in light, so you might think lighthouse doesn’t qualify. I was going to include a lighthouse anyway – I like them! – under the category of a special kind of lamplight, then Kaz came up with the concept of guiding-light. Perfect! This guiding–light is on the Firth of Clyde at Port Glasgow. Tomorrow’s post is a variation on the theme.
January Light: disco
Like my Advent Calendar last week, this window display is illuminated by backlight – and it’s also disco-light. It was part of Window Wanderland in Strathbungo last February – I’m looking forward to this year’s event for more inventive decorations.

January Light: Ailsa Craig (2)
After yesterday’s twilight view of Ailsa Craig, here it is in daylight, this time viewed from Girvan.
