Spirits of the River. A project in which I am trying to create abstract art using the nighttime reflections of neon lights on the River Clyde, shot with a 1-second shutter speed, no stabilisation and intentional camera movement. #Photography #AbstractPhotography #ICM #AbstractArt #Glasgow

There are few things in life as green as freshly emerged beech leaves. These ones are from today's afternoon dog walk in Pollok Park on the Southside of Glasgow. #glasgow #pollokpark #beechtrees #trees #urbabnature

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #ScotRail has thanked its customers as passenger numbers at #Glasgow Central station returned to near-normal levels following the full restoration of its timetable. On March 25th, around 120,000 journeys were recorded, demonstrating a swift recovery despite ongoing work on Gordon Street and Union Street entrances due to a fire. Passenger numbers had steadily increased, rising from an average of 55,000 during low-level services (March 11-17) to 94,000 after a partial reopening of high-level platforms (March 18-24). ScotRail's Chief Operating Officer, David Ross, expressed pleasure at the strong return of customers, highlighting rail's vital role in supporting the local economy and thanking passengers for their patience. The company is now focused on maintaining reliable service. https://www.scotrail.co.uk/about-scotrail/news/scotrail-thanks-customers-120000-return-glasgow-central

This is not a good scene to wake up to, but at least no one in the building or any firefighters were hurt. The neighbouring Central Station, a key element of Victorian Glasgow and an important hub for modern communters, is closed, but is hopefully unharmed. #glasgow #glasgowtoday #fire #unionstreet #glasgowcentral

The view down Renfield Street to Union Street in Glasgow this morning. After yesterday's fire, the familiar dome of the 175 year old Union Corner building is gone, as is the facade which once stretched down Union Street to Caledonian Chambers (where there is a side entrance to Central Station). Smoke still billows from the burned out remains and drifts across the centre of Glasgow. Cont./ #glasgow #glasgowtoday #fire #unionstreet #glasgowcentral

Adnkronos - Cultura: L'abbondanza e la scarsità di cibo, l'opera di Itamar Gilboa in mostra al Mic Faenza (Adnkronos) - Un'installazione che 'parla' del paradosso tra abbondanza e scarsità di cibo nel mondo contemporaneo. E' 'World of Plenty', curata da Alessandra Laitempergher e realizzata appositamente per il Museo Internazionale delle Ceramiche (Mic) Faenza, allestita nella Project Room del museo dal 1 marzo al 26 aprile. L'opera segna un nuovo capitolo dell'indagine sulla quale, da oltre 15 anni, l'artista olandese Itamar Gilboa è profondamente impegnato nelle questioni relative ai sistemi alimentari, alla responsabilità ambientale e alla disuguaglianza globale. La sua ricerca a lungo termine è iniziata con il Food Chain Project (FCP), un'indagine autobiografica sul consumo personale che si è evoluta in una riflessione critica sulla distribuzione alimentare globale, gli sprechi e la scarsità. Questo impegno costante nella ricerca sistemica lo ha portato a essere invitato a creare un'importante opera d'arte per la COP26, la Conferenza delle Nazioni Unite sui cambiamenti climatici tenutasi a Glasgow, dove il suo lavoro ha contribuito al dibattito internazionale sul rapporto tra cambiamenti climatici e sprechi alimentari, raggiungendo milioni di persone in tutto il mondo e rafforzando il legame tra crisi ambientale e sistemi alimentari. The abundance and scarcity of food, the work of Itamar Gilboa on display at the Mic Faenza. (Adnkronos) - An installation that “speaks” of the paradox between food abundance and scarcity in the contemporary world. It is ‘World of Plenty’, curated by Alessandra Laitempergher and specifically created for the International Ceramics Museum (Mic) Faenza, set up in the museum’s Project Room from March 1st to April 26th. The work marks a new chapter in the investigation that the Dutch artist Itamar Gilboa has been deeply involved in for over 15 years concerning food systems, environmental responsibility, and global inequality. His long-term research began with the Food Chain Project (FCP), an autobiographical investigation into personal consumption that evolved into a critical reflection on global food distribution, waste, and scarcity. This constant commitment to systemic research led to him being invited to create an important work of art for COP26, the United Nations Climate Change Conference held in Glasgow, where his work contributed to the international debate on the relationship between climate change and food waste, reaching millions of people worldwide and strengthening the link between environmental crises and food systems. #ItamarGilboa #theMicFaenza #Mic)Faenza #ProjectRoom #Dutch #theFoodChainProject #Glasgow https://www.adnkronos.com/cultura/labbondanza-e-la-scarsita-di-cibo-lopera-di-itamar-gilboa-in-mostra-al-mic-faenza_2f63NQML6VFvpox9mPg1Ue

Lochie in the Buchanan Galleries in central Glasgow. Designed by Douglas Roulston, Lochie is the first of what will be fifty uniquely decorated giant Scottie Dogs which will form a trail around the city this summer. The trail is being created in association with Wild in Art to support Maggie's Cancer Care. #glasgow #sculpture #publicart #buchanangalleries #scottiedog

The iconic American-style truck emerging from the wall above the entrance to the legendary Garage night club on Sauchiehall Street in Glasgow. One of Scotland's largest clubs, the Garage opened in 1994. However, the building it's in is much older, with part of it (G2) being housed in a Georgian mansion which was built in 1812. While the truck is currently bright yellow, it has been painted many different colours over the years. #glasgow #thegarage #sauchiehallstreet #architecture

A fine example of a wally close in the Broomhill area of Glasgow. A wally close is a tiled a commununal stairwell a Glasgow tenement, with the word wally being a Scots word for anything made from ceramics or china. This can include wally dugs (china dogs), and wallies (or false teeth). This, in itself, is derived from an older meaning of anything fancy, splendid or highly decorative. #glasgow #broomhill #tenements #tiles #ceramics #tenementtiles #wallyclose
