Had a good day with Issy and Phil from #GlasgowUniversity doing peat depths and taking a peat core on the island of Canna. The core will be sampled as part of Issy's ongoing PhD research. Cold and windy today...
Looking up at one of the towers of Glasgow University's 1860s Gilbert Scott Building. These towers contain spiral staircases with stone steps heavily worn by the feet of generations of students trudging to and from their classes.

Love the current lighting display on Glasgow University's main buildings. Its lighting system can be programmed to produce almost any shade you can imagine, and this one really shows the system off to its full potential.
