iPhone photo a day - day 29

The end of an era: the Republic Bier Halle West closed last night. It was nice pub, near my house and had a great pub quiz hosted by a good pal on a Sunday night.

We had a good send off including a guy running up and down Great Western Road naked to win Rangers tickets and the whole place having a shot in place of anyone winning the £50 prize.

Plenty of good times in here. I’m sad to see it go.

The last round:

It’s a twofur! Closed doors and stacked chairs:

Bye bye Bier Halle West, we hardly knew ye.

It was supposed to be a year… (Day 28)

…but I only managed 27 days. How embarrassing.

The pause in my project was not, however, due to laziness, for once. I shan’t go into details here, but needless to say, something that seems very innocent in the eyes of one person is apparently the root of all evil in the eyes of another.

So consider today day 28 of the project. This is the poor Bonsai tree I killed during my absence:

I’ve missed another day. Never mind. It was a glorious day in Glasgow today. Sanpped the airport looking like somewhere you might want to land for a holiday, rather than somewhere you’re dying to escape from.

Windows in the west: not as interesting as Avril Paton would have you believe.

There’s been a bit of a hiatus on the photo a day project - we’ll just call it the birthday girl’s special allowance… (any pics from my birthday probably aren’t fit for a public blog anyway.)

So, we’re now on day twenty four. A self-portrait of sorts. Well, of my arm at least.

It’s my birthday tomorrow! The lovely cake my lovely boss got me… om nom nom…

Some flowers my mother brought me - sadly the iPhone camera’s poor indoor performance does them no justice.

Another Kelvingrove Park picture. Today was the West End Festival parade. I missed the parade itself, but turned up in time to catch a bit of the Subcity djs set. There is something quite bizarre about pounding tunes, people drinking and dancing like it’s a nightclub… but at 4pm with toddlers wandering in between the thronging masses and the odd picnic dotted around.

The iPhone’s camera is generally crap unless it’s really sunny, which is a bit of a rarity in Scotland.

If you do have decent light, though, you can sometimes get some pretty cool pictures. This one was an accident (I was trying to get a picture of my head for the #ebethchallenge on Twitter but moved the camera too quickly - don’t ask) but I kinda like it.
