Clyde Arc Twilight

Evening twilight by the River Clyde revealed these perfect reflections of the Glasgow Clyde Arc Bridge.

This photograph was taken at the Lancefield Quay side of the River Clyde which has undergone some development to extend the ncr75  walkway, which allows this unique and splendid view of the Clyde Arc bridge to be photographed. I took various shots of the bridge from this viewpoint from landscape to portrait orientation while the evening twilight was descending, and the reflections remained absolutely still and crystal clear for the duration I was there.  This square crop of the bridge is my favorite as it shows not least of all the stunning detail of the reflection and the blue hour twilight just before darkness fell.

Loch Lomond in the mist

Another morning shot to catch the remaining mist which was lingering on the east shore of Loch Lomond.  As you can see in the image below, the little clump of trees were shedding the last of their autumn colours and the mist surrounding them helped the trees really stand out in this minimulistic shot. The 25 second exposure I used also helped to smooth out any ripples and movement in the water, and just in time too, as the mist soon lifted revealing the landscape behind the trees which of course transformed the scene from this lovely, simple and uncluttered view into the complete opposite. Three other shots from the Loch Lomond mist morning shoot are also shown below as thumbnails.  If you would like to purchase any of these images as a high resolution and quality print or canvas, then please click on a image for available print options.

Oran Mor Twilight Print – Glasgow West End Wall Art by Grant Glendinning

Twilight at Òran Mór, Glasgow

An early start to the day rewarded me with this capture of the pre-dawn twilight glow washing over the Òran Mór arts and entertainment venue on Byres Road, Glasgow. I was lucky enough to frame this moment from Great Western Road, catching what appears to be a rare, empty street. In truth, the traffic was coming in waves, and I managed to time a 25-second long exposure perfectly, just before the next surge of cars rolled through.

 

Heavy rain through the night had left a generous puddle by the roadside, which I used to full effect by lowering my Manfrotto 055XPROB tripod for a reflective angle. A Hoya low-profile polarising filter on my Canon 17–40mm f/4.0 L lens helped draw out the detail and enhance the mirror-like reflection.

 

As a final touch, a delicate crescent Moon appeared just to the right of the Òran Mór building, a quiet bonus that added to the calm, layered beauty of the scene.
