All the world seems in tune on a Spring afternoon, when we're poisoning pigeons in the park.

I suppose some of these stretch the definition of Glasgow city, but they are all within the Glasgow postcode area, so bugger it...

Image
Trees, both real and fake...

Image
I have a sneaking suspicion that this burn is steamy due to sewage content, but perhaps that's just the cynic in me...

Image
I know, I know, I posted the same view a few days ago in the Dec shots, but it was much nicer and sunnier yesterday (although probably colder!)

Image
Clyde from the banks opposite Daldowie

Image
Max pondering if those swans are gettable, and whether the Queen would mind...

Image
Pipe Bridge at Daldowie carrying shit to the sewage works visible on the other side, bit of a running theme with these pics, it would seem.

Image
The copper dome and gardens of Daldowie Crematorium, as seen from Honeyhill Plantion on the opposite banks of the Clyde.

Image
Footpath under the West Coast Main Line to Fin' Me Oot/Caldervale (there's a thread about that here somewhere...)

Image
Ruins of an admin building at Blantyreferme WWII AA-gunsite.

Image
Max learns to walk on water (and yes, I did check it was pretty solid all the way across before letting him wander out!)

Image
View from the other side of a very frozen Redlees Quarry.

Image
Finally, might be mistaken, but the hard frost and low winter sun appears to have revealed a wee bit of rig and furrow in the fields near the Rotten Calder.

I particularly like the advert on the bus in the reflection.

Spooky mist on waste ground opposite the science park / bbc at plantation, There was a pair of heron standing amazingly close to the road. They were too fast for me though.

I like your church VT. I like the wee flash of padlock at the bottom too!
