Took the picture in my garden, I love his colours!!!

In your garden??? Bloody hell, that's the coolest thing ever! Brilliant pic Lil Sister, I don't think I 'd ever get beyond the 'ooooh a lizard' stage, never mind grabbing my camera. Was gutted not to spot a single one in Croatia, I thought the place would be overrun with them.

Thank you!

yes, I know what you mean - and they are fast. I was just lucky that I was just taking pictures of something when he decided to show up

Yeah, I guess you can't really train the little buggers to stroll casually into the frame as and when required. Even sunsets have a tendency to have totally changed light-wise by the time I've stopped going 'oooooh, pretty lights' and actually gone in for the camera.

Art Deco ... Glasgow style:

Blimey Stephen, there's a VNV Nation album cover if ever I've seen one.

LOL @Ravey Davey!

Lovely pic, Steven - I especially love how the blue-grey sky contrasts with the red bits on the front of the building...

they used to let students live in that place, pfff!

No way! Damn.

To be fair, it was a bit more dilapidated then - it's recently been privately bought and extensively refurbished.

how it was left to get in such a state in the first place beggers Blast's belief

Does tend to happen to a lot of old Deco buildings... they need good maintenance or else they do start to look a bit s**t. Combination of the building materials, the fact they're often painted white, and the Glasgow weather of course...

need colours?
et voilà

Very nice Marco!

your pictures were really really great....but grey

Flying along the coast of France back in July, with the sun hitting the water like molten gold. Hope you chaps dig it.

Huzzah for plane-window photography!

Lovely!

My one regret was NOT taking a pic flying to Leningrad (as twas then) and passing over the Nordic ice fjords early evening.
As the plane banked they just opened up beneath us, glowing and sparkling. Wish I'd grabbed one, I really do.

So yep, TimSin, we are indeed digging that pic!

Ocht! well, since the only pieces I have scanned are some of my 'in concert' stuff and it's been a while, plus some of you are new(ish) or may have just missed my family jewels: #1

Murph, Glasgow Tiffany's Ballroom c.82, Sky's Gone Out/Press the Eject tour whatever...

Holy crap. Nice one, Herr Blast!

It was a beautiful accident. I'd randomly got a window seat, happened to have a camera in my hand-luggage, and flew at just the right time, altitude and weather for it. I'd love to claim I'd planned it all!

Cheers guys.

Goldmine! That's professional-material that is. If you have 'em Boss, keep 'em coming!

Blimey, JB - we'll have some more of those, please!

Gosh! I shouldn't really...

...but you will, won't you..?
