A Few from the River Clyde Today


Grabbed a few shots in the East India Harbour, and Victoria Harbour on my way home today.

After a late lunch I realised that the 'MV Hebrides' was inbound, so took a chance and headed back to Greenock.

She berthed at James Watt Dock in nice sunshine, albeit still a bitingly cold wind persists at the moment.

Walking Maya in Greenock


I took Maya a walk above the Greenock cut and played around with the wee Olympus to see how it performed.

The lack of weight is good for sure, but I miss my viewfinder.

Still, it proves I can get reasonable shots and no worries on lugging heavy gear around on the walks.
