Princess Square I took the camera to work yesterday to do some street work. Basically I am rubbish at it, but that is all it takes for me to want to try and get better. I just love the decorations on this building. I've meant to get a shot of it for weeks. It's Princess Square in Glasgow. A wonderful building inside also, which I will capture later. It's full of restaurants and fashion shops. Beccy couldn't quite work out what it is on top of the building, she was with Sophia and asked her. Being highly visual and already into design (clothes, photography, still lifes, etc) she knew immediately and said, 'It's a Peacock Mum!' I quietly admit wondering for a long time myself what it was. This is an 18 shot HDR panorama - I used CS5 to stich the pictures together after processing each set of 3 as Photorealistic, HDR images.
Buchanan Street Shopping Crowds: I took my camera in so that I could console myself on my first day back after holidays. I had such an enjoyable photographic break over Christmas and New Year. I needed shutter therapy. I wanted to do some street work, but wasn't in a people mood, this was my best from the day.
I ride the next bridge into Glasgow most days. Slight over exposure not sure why - maybe the blue?
