Photographer's Note
This a view taken from outside Glasgow School of Art in the city centre taken at night - its a famous local building designed by Charles Rennie Macintosh (I've previously posted another shot of this building see that for note).
Glasgow is built on a lot of hills (about 150 or so I'm told) so I wanted to take a photo looking down one of them towards the activity on the streets below. I chose this location since I knew the building was lit up as night and would make a good foreground. I chose a long exposure to record some traffic trails and metered off the side of the building, using +1.0 stop exposure compensation to make up for reciprocity failure. Focal length was about 35mm.

Excellent idea and technically spot on, it's such a pity that the steel cladding to the building to the right of the GSA is so prominant.

This pic has good objects you well captured.
I just don't like the proportions... the street starts on the left driving my eyes to the right and doing so the School of Art seems too big and distractive for me. May be to keep the end of the street a bit more cenered would rebalance the composition...
Good Job!

beutiful... if you captured all of glasgow that you say you did (and you must be close, including a mackintosh building), then i cannot even begin to fathom (even more than before) why i am not there!
really... an inspiring|well-articulated piece you have here.
