Wow...why did you change it ?

i got bored  
james73

I agree. I think that looks better than the doctored version. The reason I made the
Photoshop comment was cos it didn't really look natural.  

Orignal version for me.

Yes, kelvingrove again,,,,time to get out i think

smiscandlon

Great shot.  I love how in the halls at Kelvingrove you get that cool blue light on the floor and a warmer brown up towards the ceiling.  Here's one of mine that shows the same sort of effect.

I love this plane..so I wanted it to stand out from the rest of what's going on in that hall

Absolutely brilliant take on the plane there.  

Went for a slightly different angle on it last time I was there...

If I am not mistaken that would be the Rodin "The Call To Arms" from the Burrell Collection.
cybers

For 15years I have said I must get to that Burrel collection for 15 years I have never made it.

I really must get to this and see it ... That Statuette is fantastic looking.

I love this shot. I'll have a nightmare about this soon.

A trip to the museum wouldn't be complete without a shot of some heads.

LowLight

I know pictures of other peoples art doesn't usually work too well but I quite liked this.

Another one form Kelvingrove today.

EDIT: Colour looks sh!t unless you're using a browser that supports colour management.

Thanks again Alex.

Cybers>>> I love the wee street. I was amazed the first time I walked into the picture hall. I was young at the time, give me a break :)
cybers

I am amazed every time i walk into The Regal Pete...
It usually takes up the best part of an hour of my visit.
I have seen some of those films many many times and still sit there
at the front and watch them.
Though sadly the last visit it was not showing any movies.

Every one loves the Harpy ! Game ol bird she is !

Museum of Transport....going in


and coming out


I didn't think I'd find a lot I would like there, but I was proved wrong...really enjoyed it  
LowLight

I've always liked the transport museum. I must've been there about 25 times.

I understand that won't be  a lot compared to the car geeks attendance records.
