Artist's Comments
The Moat House Hotel, Armadillo and the Finneston Crane. All located next to the River Clyde. The sixteen-storey high Moat House Hotel is a pretty impressive four star hotel, with it's reflective windows mirroring the beauty of the surrounding area.
Right next door is the "Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre" (more commonly known as the SECC), which host a number of conferences, exhibitions, live performances, concerts and corporate functions all year round. It's impressive structure - the Armadillo proudly on display by the water's edge, which uses a flat sheet material to cover entire building in an arrangement similar to that of the Sydney Opera House in Australia, making it highly visible from the air due to reflected light. The last structure to dominate the skyline is the Finneston Crane; marking Glasgow's proud past as one of the largest port cities in the world. Many ships and goods were made and traded on the docks of the Clyde. The Finneston Crane is the largest dockside crane in Glasgow. The crane was built in 1932 ad was capable of lifting 175 tonnes. |

It has to be said - I'm looking forwards to that winter light too - at the very least it means I can be lazier when it comes to taking sunrise/sunset photos!
Love your gallery by the way, you've got some great talent there - especially taking candid photos. That's a scene I'd really like to break into one of these days. I'll try and comment some of your work at some point, but I'm pretty busy right now, so have only really been lurking this place of late...
Cheers for the comments mate!

"It is not the critic who counts, not the one who points out how the strong man stumbled or how the doer of deeds might have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred with sweat and dust and blood"

Anyways, thanks for the compliments! It's definetly one of my favorite photos. Loved the colours in the sky too. Lucky you having a good look round the indoors of the Armadillo - never had an excuse to go in - sure it's pretty impressive though!
Thanks for your comment!
