Today is the solstice and we have emerged from the darkest days of winter. I’ve not been walking or getting out much lately, but cycled across to Maryhill on Monday afternoon after hearing that The Wyndford flats were being demolished.
I’ve been following the campaign to save them from afar and was particularly inspired by the work of Colin Templeton.
Photography while cycling is a very different experience than walking. Sometimes nice to embrace the constraints.
Need to get better at leaving the house before the sun sets, if only for vitamin D.
On the few occasions I have been outside, this is what I’ve seen.
One thing that was cheering this week was Phoebe Weston’s Big Softies show at Nicolls Gallery.
I was particularly struck by Alasdair Watson’s portrait of the Hyndland Bear, which is apparently is very famous in a small part of Glasgow.
