I have always had an attraction for lights, especially those at night. So it was no surprise that I was drawn to a little store we found in Fredericksburg called It’s aGlow. They specialize in unique decorative items made from a natural stone called Honeycomb Calcite.

With a light or candle, these creations illuminate a soothing glow with unique patterns. They resemble small cells grouped closely together, to large areas that give the appearance of petrified honey. Only discovered in 1994, go to their website for more information on this remarkable stone.

Having visited the store during the day, I came by after hours to see the store lit by the warm glow of this stone. Not having my tripod earlier during the day when they were open, I wasn’t able to capture a nice closeup. Shame on me.
