Canvas

What about one of these as a canvas filler?
These are just mock ups I did in photoshop for ideas. Got inspiration from a painter called Pam Carter.

Linn Park


Took a walk to Linn Park today. This is the second largest park in Glasgow, full of history and wildlife. It is the location of Cathcart Castle and the viewpoint where Mary Queen of Scots watched the battle of Langside before fleeing to England. It was a soft day and the 1.5 mile walk is one I should have made sooner. The park is huge with the river Cart flowing through. Birds include the usual mallard, wren, tits, robin, sparrowhawk even a dipper was spotted. Light was at a minimum so didn't get many shots. However on the walk home along the river a kingfisher was glimpsed in the dusk, the second time I've seen one on the river!

The Freeze Sets In


Things are cooling down nicely. Hope we're getting enough white stuff on the hills. Been snowfall in Glasgow and this morning risked life and limb going to work on the frozen canals that were Glasgow's pitiful cycle paths.
