I took this picture from the toilet window of the 10th floor of Glasgow Uni Library. You get a great view of the whole of Glasgow from the top floors and i intend to get some more (and better quality) pics soon.

I had to take this one quick because I didn't want to get hanging around urinals with a camera!

Pity it was a little overcast today. But these photos mean that on the next clear day...photos must be taken!!

The catchkin braes really did take care of the hangover nicely today :)

City Centre rooftops

Postby gap74 » Wed Jun 02, 2004 1:17 am

OK, took these from the roof at work, some as recently as last week, others from up to a year or so ago. The ones of the blocked buses and police in Renfield Street are from the anti-war demo in March 2003!

They're not all skyline pics, but they at least all have an unusual elevated perspective!

These are all compressed for quicker browsing, feel free to contact for full size pics (about 350-400K each)
