Old job, old office

Slightly grander surroundings - doesn't the City Chambers look super with that intense blue sky behind it!

Just found out that this image I took back in January has been shortlisted for the University of Strathclyde's Images of Research competition - mental! It's going to be exhibited with other shortlisted entries from the 29th April - 3rd May at the Collins Gallery on Richmond Street. The overall winner is decided by public vote so if you fancy popping by... We had to write a wee bit of blurb with our images. This was mine:

Glasgow's east end. January. Cold. This little girl and her mum have come out to see just what on earth is going on. How can we do urban environmental regeneration projects, involve the community and deliver multiple benefits? In the final stages of my research, it is these questions that are keeping me awake at night! Technical planning and engineering solutions are only part of the picture - supporting our most deprived communities through the regeneration process requires a truly holistic approach. If Glasgow is to thrive as a global City, we must raise aspiration and involve everyone in the journey.
