Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
A previously unpublished b-roll shot taken in May 2019. Wishing you all a fantastic weekend of photography, stay safe everyone!
This view kooks towards the booking hall and hotel. This would take you right out to St. Enoch Square.
You might have nociced I haven't been posting any BJD pictures lately, and clearly right now I'm not into BJD's at all. I'll probably stop buyng and customizing them for the moment. There are many reasons for it and I feel it's the right thing to do.
But.
This is a Näbi Cham from Dust of Dolls, and I've had it for a couple of months already. I wanted this doll so badly and I was damn lucky to get one, and I'm so ashamed of not showing it and not having it customized yet >o< It's kinda amazing in many ways and very different from my other BJD, a good 'different', it's nice to have fresh ideas and themes to explore. I'll make sure to have the customization work done by next fall, for the Ldoll festival^^
A panoramic view of the railway viaduct that fed into and out of the old St. Enoch's station in Glasgow.
It dates from 1899 and has also been called the City Union Railway Bridge and the St. Enoch Railway Bridge. The clock tower is Merchants' Steeple (1665).

While driving through Enoch I found this Heil CP Python with Greensboro grippers collecting trash. I was excited to see this truck because I have never seen a CP Python on route before. I also like that 3 Heil ASL's are incorporated into this truck with the Rapid Rail body, Python arm and the Greensboro grippers typically found on the F7000. I was lucky because this CP Python is a spare, the normal truck is a Wayne Curbtender Condor and the County and most of the neighboring cities have Curbtender Condor.
An interesting fact about Enoch is that on most streets carts are only on one side of the street to save on fuel, Enoch did that at one point to prevent a rate increase. The driver Tom, is the only driver in the small City of Enoch, which also services the City of Paragonah and Kanarraville on Thursdays.
Thank you to the driver Tom, who did a great job driving in the snowy/ice conditions.

Established and funded in 1848 by local brewer Enoch Turner, Toronto’s first free school educated the children of the area’s many poor immigrants from 1849-1859. Because the families were often from Cork in what is now Eire (Southern Ireland), the neighbourhood became known as Corktown.
Historians believe that Henry Bowyer Lane (1817-1878), an English architect who worked in Canada from about 1841 to 1847 designed both the schoolhouse and Little Trinity Church at the same time. He was also responsible for several other important Toronto buildings including the City Hall and St. Lawrence Market.
Closed as a school in 1859, Enoch Turner Schoolhouse has had a chequered history remaining in continuous use through the years. Until the 1960s it was a Sunday school and Parish hall for nearby Little Trinity Church which, in 1869, added the West Hall. It became a Boer War recruitment centre in 1899, a serviceman’s home away from home during two World Wars, a soup kitchen serving 1500 people a week in the”Dirty Thirties”, a Little Trinity Church Neighbourhood youth clubhouse in the 1950s and a temporary meeting place after the church’s fire. In the 1960s, it was home to concerts, community youth programs and performing and visual arts events. Then, in a sad state of disrepair, the building was in danger of being torn down.
Enter architect Eric Arthur and local citizens who lovingly saved and restored it for Governor General Roland Michener to open as an historic site and museum in 1972. Now one of the oldest, continuously operated buildings in Toronto, Mr. Turner’s schoolhouse remains a unique architectural and historical treasure.
Designated a heritage building, important for its history and architecture under the Ontario Heritage Act in 2000, the Enoch Turner Schoolhouse is the city’s oldest surviving such building. The Ontario Heritage Trust owns and operates it and runs several school children’s and citizens’ programs here. Through role playing with.”Mrs. Henderson” at the blackboard, students experience first hand what a Victorian school was like with its wooden desks, slate writing boards, discipline and the starched collars and pinafores. (The children love it.) Its program includes lectures, walking tours, and special events. A heritage resource and a living history museum, it is also available for rental.
