My second round of locations involved looking for places with water and going to Glasgow. Im not sure Glasgow was quite as fruitful as i thought it would be, i dont really know Glasgow that well and we had to find somewhere that would be close to Queen Street station to travel to. In Glasgow there is a bunch of really nice artsy murals, really bright and colourful but i had my heart set on something a bit grittier, a mish mash of graffiti with little artistic merit and a few swear words. But these murals might work, if im looking at cultural appropriation and gentrification then having this council sanctioned graffiti might be a better representation of those ideas than an area that has been tagged by teenagers in the dead of night. Esentially im not sure if these murals only really say Glasgow to people who know Glasgow well, they could be from any major city in the UK.
On the Sunday after going to Glasgow we went off to South Queensferry which was just a bit different, to get photos on the beach around the forth rail bridge. I got a bunch of better shots here for my Selkie character. I really like the iconic bridge in the background and think it will make some really grand and epic looking shots.
