olderndirt Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Glasgow never got the attention that Edinburgh did. The largest, most industrial city in Scotland always came in second best. When I lived there, Edinburgh was certainly prettier but Glasgow, like Paris, got out the big sand blasters and cleaned off decades of grime and is now up there with the finest. Always late. 'Yon bonny banks'. Looking west - Isle of Arran on the left. Another 'Dumbarton Rock' for Calum's collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingleaf Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Bonny shots OND. At the present time I won't drink Corona just in case. Naw, that ain't true at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edinburgh has always been easier on the eye and is steeped in history but Glasgow has really cleaned up its act over the last few decades. These are brilliant!! The second shot at dusk looking north over the town of Balloch (this is where i live) with Loch Lomond behind is absolutely superb!!

adambar Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Not that it matters, but my grandfather came to the US from Scotland when he was 13 and the other one from Belgium, so i'm not quite sure what i am, not that that matters either.
