Good job on Glasgow so far Domien, especially the cathedral shots
A few different views in the cathedrals from me p88: A pietá in the St. Andrew's Cathedral p89: side chapel with a painting by Peter Howsom of John Ogilvie (a Roman Catholic martyr) being hanged. According to the lady who spoke to us when we entered the church it's one of the main attractions why people visit this Cathedral. p90: side chapel of St Mary On to the main Cathedral of Glasgow (Church of Scotland) p91: Main aisle p92: "The Book" p93: Chapel and tomb of St Mungo, patron saint of Glasgow, in the cellar under the cathedral p94: And suddenly Domien vanished 89: A6000 + E10-18/4 All others A7ii + FE24-70/4 CZ |

After the Glasgow Cathedral we first enjoyed a little stabilization in the beer garden behind the Cathedral House Hotel
p95: Cathedral House Hotel with the Necropolis in the background p96: Looking back at the cathedral from the Necropolis The Necropolis is a giant cemetery on a hill right behind the cathedral, it is reasonable well maintained and apparently the fact that it is a cemetery doesn't scare off people who just use it as a park to hang out p97: Taking a break and catching up on social media while the baby sleeps p98: Enjoying a sunny day behind the tombstones p99: Bridge connecting the Necropolis with the Cathedral area p100: If I ever get summoned to the supreme court I know where to go for a solicitor all A7ii + FE24-70/4 CZ |

A lot of beautiful pictures, thanks a lot for sharing!
Sorry for the late reply. In this circumstances I always look at the clouds and play around a lot. As soon as it feels right I keep it and most of the time that works well (at least for me). |

Hm. I did the factory seriously wrong. And your shots are a good finish to the Scotland trip travelogue. I have nothing more to add. It was a great journey, with good weather, and lots of shooting opportunities. TFL |
