my name is - Dr Ralph Moffat

and he is Curator of European Arms and Armour

Ralph Moffat joined Glasgow Museums in 2008 as Curator of European Arms & Armour and is responsible for the care, study, and dissemination of knowledge of Glasgow Museums' internationally-renowned collection of arms and armour as well as the many combat and weapons-related books and manuscripts in the R. L. Scott Library.

I seem to have made Ralph look all haughty and aloof and he is not at all like that, he is a most pleasant jolly guy. He was interested in my photo project and agreed to allow me to photograph him with parts of his arms and armour collection at some point soon 8-)
