A very hot Hot Shop


Whilst in Canberra last week we visited a favourite, the Canberra Glassworks. It's always fascinating to see the glassblowers at work and the works they have for sale in the small shop are superb.
The area where the glass is heated and blown is known as the Hot Shop. They had 6 furnaces going when we visited and the gas bill does not bear thinking about. When I visited the Hot Shop was even hotter than usual as it was over 36ÂșC outside. We could only watch for a short time before seeking aircon and water.

Photo taken from the public viewing area in the Hot Shop with my Leica X1. Who needs a big camera on a very hot day?
