There was hardly a spot in Edinburgh where we didn’t want to take a picture! Here’s the side of someone’s house. Really, nothing to it, until I thought about those red berries popping with color, and how much I love windows as a metaphor for opportunity, and what might be happening beyond them. Minimal transformation on my part, but still transports me back to that magical weekend.
