Reasons why the image for this memorial was requested

Hi Again, This is Connie Steel from UT Austin. I would love to see Hugh Blair's stone. Also, is there some way I could contact Michelle Roberts to talk about her priorities when photographing the stones and if she is planning to cover more burial grounds in Edinburgh? There might be potential to collaborate. Best and thanks, Connie Steel
