Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Yesterday, the 9th August, I made my first street shots in Glasgow since the 2nd March having spent 5 months hibernating away from the Coronavirus at home. I only spent an hour in the city but that hour was actually quite terrifying. I understand, anecdotally, that the people of Scotland are adhering to Covid-secure ways of living more-so than England but I saw so many people without a care of the virus in their minds. Little social distancing, few people wearing masks and those that were, only a few were wearing them properly. People were no longer keeping their distance from others as I had observed in my home town during early lockdown walks. Now, it was bumping and jostling on the busy streets as ever before.
I also note that 5 months of hibernation equates to greatly reduced muscle strength in the legs and I even pulled a muscle in my back from my 5kg camera bag. I'm now nursing some back pain though it is the site of an old industrial injury from many years ago so there must have been a redundant weakness there waiting to be found.
This is one of 9 shots I took in the hour. My confidence not quite at the level it once was but my confidence can be rebuilt easily when it comes to shooting street.
Stay safe out there everyone - not sure how often I will shoot new street images at the moment, and definitely not until my back stops hurting, but I hope you enjoy the few new shots that I took.

Today we recieved our new facemasks.
I guess we will be forced to wear them later this year.
These truely are strange times.

This is the nose of my facemask which I gratefully dug up from the garage when COVID broke out. It has seen better days.

I am interrupting the coverage of the February Cuba trip with a public service announcement: "We stick together. We keep distance." - one of the saints on the Old Main Bridge in Würzburg shares some important advice.
Stagecoach 18405 (KX06 JYG) a Dennis Trident, seen along Nectar Way, Swan Valley, with one of the 5 vehicles used for this peak time afternoon 55 service, mainly taking EE scum to work. Of note, is that faces of 9 passengers can be clearly seen in my original photograph. Of those 9, only 1 person is wearing a face mask properly. 6 only covering their mouth, not their filthy noses, and 2 bastards are not even bothering at all.

This is the entrance to a gravel pit in Murray County MN
Driving a gravel truck into a pit to get loaded doesn't require you to see but maybe one human and you don't even have to get close to each other and you are outdoors the entire time.
Interesting the sign has stayed.
There are many ways to wear a mask - including some I'm sure the public health communicators didn't think of when they prepared their messages...
Seen on the street, I like this person's style...
