The towers and spires rising above the sandstone tenements of the West End of Glasgow. These types of views are quite special, and distinctively Glaswegian. However, in the last couple decades they've become increasingly rare to find as more and more modern high rises are built across the city, and this, I think, is a loss to Glasgow's identity as its becoming more and more like any other city.

Glasgow University from the Forth and Clyde Canal, which sits on a hill above the West End of the city.
Some unexpected, but very welcome, Autumn crocuses I came across in Bellahouston Park in Glasgow today.

Ben Vorlich on Sunday from Ben Vane. That single patch of sunshine remained in pretty much the same spot for the whole day, while the rest of the Arrochar Alps was shrouded in low cloud.

A rather odd little painted rock which someone has left by an outside wall of the Kelvingrove Art Gallery in Glasgow.

Animals in the darkness of Glasgow's Mercat Cross. While based on an ancient design, the current monument was only built in 1930.

Glasgow's looking spectacular in today's afternoon sunshine, especially the Kelvingrove Art Gallery, one of the gems in the city's amazing architectural crown.

Love this new mural by Bmoresketchy on the Clyde Street legal wall in central Glasgow.
A trip up Ben Lomond today for what was meant to be the last hill of the Summer turned out to be more like the first hill of the Autumn. Still, the low cloud and mist made for some atmospheric views (before it close in and blotted everything out!).

I love this new art installation outside Glasgow University's ARC building. It's bright and it's colourful, and it highlights the MPN 10, ten symptoms of Myeloproliferative neoplasms, a type of blood cancer. All in all, it's a great way to raise awareness while brightening up the local area.

Love this sculpted walrus on the old Argyll Motor Works in Alexandria to the west of Glasgow, especially the slightly psychotic look on its face!

One of the recently replaced Glasgow Subway trains in the Riverside Museum. Is there a name for the slightly uneasy feeling you get when you realise a once familiar everyday object is now only to be found in museum collections?

The ticket offce in Central Station in Glasgow. I love the way this station has a series of buildings within the main building.

The Sighthill Pedestrian Bridge, better known as the Rusty Bridge. Installed in 2023, it connects Sighthill with central Glasgow across the M8 motorway, which has represented a major barrier to the free and easy movement of people around the city since it was built in the 1960s.
