John was up Ben Lomond at the weekend and took some photos of the city. Because his were rather dark - well, it was night-time! - this is his friend Eddie's night shot of the city of Glasgow [Latitude 55 degrees 50 minutes North] to the south. The city lies in the Clyde Valley on the west side of Scotland.
It really is amazing to live in a city where you can see the hills both to the north and down to the south in the Firth of Clyde. This can be done from certain strategic vantage points, it must be said, e.g. an upstairs window on a good day.
Just after New Year I was out in the snow on a very cold, but sunny, morning. Very icy under foot but great for long shadows and high latitude lighting. It would have been about 2 weeks after the Winter Solstice.
The bench photo above and the 3 following photos are all taken the same occasion down at Kilmardinny Loch, Bearsden.
