Excellent photos Russell.... You must have good lenses there's some great shots in there. Film or digital camera?

Was nose-ing about your photos and found your "artist's impression" of the new Eliphinstone building... looks pretty good!

When I was a boy my friend and I climbed up the wanter intake tower and explored the power station it was being demolished at the time. The turbines were still in situ and the control room was still there. What we didn't know was they were removing the asbestos first. The site foreman caught us and threw us out but he gave us 50p for sweets so all in all a good adventure. A couple of years later we watched it being blown up. my view was changed for ever. :twisted:

I dunno how they expect to let out most of the floors on that proposed skyscraper for Glasgow, when there's disused new office space all over town already.

A large part of it is residential Duncan, with a restaraunt on one of the upper floors, pent-house on top of course.
