Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
First shot out of the bag on my return to street photography in Glasgow after 3 years away with severe PTSD and a terrifying period of homelessness. Proving to myself that I still have what it takes - albeit with a hill of confidence to climb.
I had done a little street shooting in Ayr prior to this, and will share some of those in good time, but being back in the big city with camera in hand was a magical feeling.
During my time without my computer I captured 969 photos onto my camera card. It may take some time to edit them all.
Thank you all for your incredible support and care. You have kept me strong through this extremely difficult time and your warm welcome back to Flickr has brought me to tears. My deepest thanks to you.
Take care my Flickr friends and family. It is wonderful to return!
In the animal world this would be the expression you got when you were told there was No More Christmas Pudding!!

Islands of expression.
Seemingly separate from each other, yet all interconnected under the surface, rather like humanity really.
Life in the swamp.

Sundance is usually cooperative when it is time to pose for a photo and gives the camera his signature expression.
Happy Caturday!

Deeply unhealthy ultra-processed food should never be cheaper than healthy alternatives. We live in a sad state where this is the case and such disparity creates health inequality.
Such poor nutrition food should always be personal choice and never forced upon anyone by financial constraint.

Amsterdam - Spaarndammerplantsoen.
"Spaarndam 2" is a social housing complex built in the Amsterdam School style of architecture and designed in 1918 by architect Michel de Klerk. With this sculptural block, De Klerk has made a major contribution to the street scene. Particularly beautiful are the trapezoidal windows, the sculptures above the porches reminiscent of mushrooms and starfish, the imaginative wooden attic windows and the very special organic windows of the former shop corner.
Restoration was completed this spring.
Spaarndam 2 is één van de drie monumentale volkswoningbouwcomplexen in het Spaarndammerplantsoen in Amsterdam. Het werd in 1918 door Michel de Klerk ontworpen voor woningbouwvereniging Eigen Haard. Het gebouw is gebouwd in de stijl van de architectuurstroming ‘Amsterdamse School’.
De bouwstijl ‘Amsterdamse school’ (sinds 1916) wordt getypeerd door het gebruik van expressieve en fantastische vormen, verwant aan het expressionisme. Kenmerkend is het gebruik van veel baksteen en de versieringen in de gevels.
Het complex, met 48 woningen, is onlangs gerenoveerd en gerestaureerd.
Happy Wall Wednesday!

I heard from a few friends recently about their new year’s resolutions. Quite frankly, I never believed in that. Why does one has to wait for a specific date to make a resolution? For me, the end of a year has always been a time to reflect about the year that passed and draw conclusions. I once wrote on a contact’s stream that ‘if the pandemic has taught us anything is to be kinder to each other’. Saying it was perhaps too naïve. Instead, I should have written that if the pandemic has taught us anything is how we endure and react during challenging times. It is during such times that show more than anything else, who we really are.
So, let’s raise a glass to 2022, a year to create more memories, have more trips, and discover new places. I’ll drink to that!

Colour re-edit of a shot from September 2023. Captured as a close-up demonstration for my street photography workshop where there was, fortuitously, a Scottish Independence rally going on in George Square. Always an opportunity to practice getting closer as cameras are pretty much everywhere. Enjoy!
