Another shot from last night's trip along the Clyde in the gloaming. I love the mix of shapes, colours and silhouettes in this photo.

Glasgows old and new: The 53 metre tall Finnieston crane, built in the late 1920s, reflected in the translucent outer cushions of the nearby Hydro Arena, constructed almost a century later in the 2010s

The 53 metre tall Finnieston Crane on the north bank of the Clyde against this evening's sunset. Constructed in 1928, it was designed to lift Glasgow-built steam locomotives into the holds of ships so they could be transported all over the world.

This weigh station appears on an OS map from the 1890s, indicating, it is potentially older than the nearby Finnieston Crane, although it may not be the same mechanism as was originally installed.

Love this new sign on the Clyde Walkway, but it definitely falls into the Keep Glasgow Weird category. It's one of a number of signs inspired by Science Fiction movies around the citys Science Centre

Finnieston Crane, Glasgow with moody skies
Finnieston Crane, River Clyde, Glasgow. It would not be Glasgow without some moody skies would it 😉 #photography #blackandwhite #monochrome #bnwphotography #blackandwhitephoto #blackandwhitephotography #travel #travelphotography #finniestoncrane #squintybridge #glasgow #scotland
Glasgow's waterfront was looking particularly spectacular in this morning's sunshine, almost cloudless skies and mirror-calm Clyde.

At 53 metres tall, with a 46 metre cantilevered jib, and capable of lifting 175 ton steam locomotives into the holds of ships, this was the largest of the massive Titan Cranes built in the West of Scotland.

The Finnieston Crane is a disused giant cantilever crane in the centre of #Glasgow, #Scotland. It is no longer operational, but is retained as a symbol of the city's engineering heritage. #photography #architecture #engineering #heritage #Nikon #FinniestonCrane #river #RiverClyde
The story presented in this plaque took quite a bit of research to uncover. It's about Glasgow's most flamboyant billionaire and the forgotten reason why he built the Finnieston Crane.
