August 2013

My first visit to Glasgow armed with my camera.

St Georges Square. Glasgow City Chambers.

Buchanan Street looking South.

The Glasgow Royal concert Hall at the top of Buchanan Street. The statue is commemorate Donald Dewar, the inaugural holder of the post of First Minister for Scotland. He died in 2000.

Looking south down Buchanan Street from the steps of the Royal Concert Hall.

This a reflection of the old Scottish Stock Exchange building in Buchanan Street.

Glasgow School of Art from Scott Street. The GSA was founded in 1845 and was initially located in Ingram Street. In 1897 work started on the new building which was designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh.

The distinctive and very fine windows on the western end of the building.

The main entrance door.

Every detail of the building's design reflects the Mackintosh style. These are the In and Out door decorations.

The eastern aspect of the GSA and the entrance to the shop and tour start point.

The northern face of the building on Renfrew Street. We could not get a good view from here due to construction work on the new building across the road.

Kelvingrove Museum in Argyle Street.
