Dumbarton Firework Display - 2015

It was Dumbarton's turn for their firework display this evening.

Got off to a poor start for me as unexpected rain forced me to shoot from indoors.

Mist also curtailed the view across the River Clyde.

Purely a personal opinion but I felt the display was not as good as last years - a shame as I consider this one of the better displays in out area.

Enjoyed processing the images nevertheless.

Fireworks Display at Dumbarton

It's that time of year again and Dumbarton had their annual firework night tonight.

We never seem to hear of Guy Fawkes these days - just the displays - and many of them are themed.

I find this a bit confusing as I always though the theme was Guy Fawkes.

In any case, it's always a very colourful event and very well attended.

Scotland Boat Show - 2014

Went along to the Scotland Boat Show this afternoon at the Kip Marina in Inverkip.

The event ran over three days with a variety of entertainments for the visitors.

We were treated to an acrobatic flying display, wet jets performing their stuff, a pipe band, some expensive automobiles, the Inverclyde Rock Choir, and much more besides.

An enjoyable afternoon and it also stayed dry.

Classic Car and Vehicle Show - Strathaven

A day out in Strathaven today as I attended a 'Classic Car and Vehicle Show' at Strathaven Rural Centre.

The weather was very good for a change today so made the event all the more enjoyable.

The good folks that had their vehicles on display were very friendly and only too keen to chat and enlighten on their various exhibits.

All in all this was a good day out.

Glasgow Festival Show - 2011

Took another trip up to see the Glasgow Show today.

Poor organisation saw us wait for almost an hour in a queue before we could get in to the show. Never experienced this in any of the other events we've attended in the past.

 Waited patiently and had a good spot to watch the 'Rockin' Horse Stunt Show', but then advised that they had altered the schedule and we missed this event because of this. Again, very poor as this was the main attraction as far as we were concerned.

So al in all, this was a good day out partly spoiled by poor organisational skills on the day.
