The view into the Cairngorms from Carn na Drochaide today. It's not been one of those super-mild thaws, thankfully, so there is still good cover higher up. An excellent primer for any heavy falls to come.....but need to get through Tues/Weds first 😬

Love these brightly coloured murals in a pedestrian underpass below the southern access road to the Clyde Tunnel in the Linthouse area of Glasgow. They make what would otherwise be a rather dark and dingy space much more pleasant to walk through. #glasgow #streetart #mural #linthouse #govan

John Mossman's 1870s bronze statue of David Livinstone in Glasgow. I like the way it shows (quite literally) two different sides to his life. Cont./ #glasgow #sculpture #statue #davidlivingstone #geogesquare

I've lived 6 years on the Scottish Isle of Islay in a lovely cottage 20 metres from the sea. Some days we had views like this one. What more can I say 😊 #fishingboat #boat #islay #scotland #scottish #argyll #sunrise #sea #lochindaal #portcharlotte #photography

Soft rain today at Carlingwark Loch.

A few aerial shots of the beautifully squiggly Kensington Gate of 1902 by David Barclay, in the West End of Glasgow, taken on 30th December. I especially like that one of the rear elevation, looking towards the rapidly setting winter sun. #Glasgow #aerialphotography
