I pass these a couple of times a week, they are still doing the landscaping bit around them ( they sit right beside the west bound carriageway of the M9 at Falkirk - they haven't been lit up at night - hopefully that is on the shiny metal panels will look brilliant at night.

Haven't seen them 'live' myself yet, Nota. They look magnificent in the photos though.

Watched them being built and taking shape over a number of months - I'm looking forward to seeing them being lit at night - hopefully

Oh those things are just fabulous! Stunning. Beautiful, alluring, but a little scarey as well. Wonderful work.
