Sick and tired of everything, a photo from Glasgow, Scotland

Photographer's Note

There are some movie titles or song lyrics which in my head relate to some destinations. In this case it is a song titled "Super Trouper" by Abba. For some reason one of their songs starts like that:

I WAS SICK AND TIRED OF EVERYTHING
WHEN I CALLED YOU LAST NIGHT FROM GLASGOW�

For the whole two days which I spent in Glasgow with my family, this song was constantly playing in my head, and I couldn抰 wait for a chance to upload a photo with a title like that, although I can understand that you may not find it as funny nor as suitable as I do.
Coincidentally, I had yesterday a surgery which I think went quite well, but I suppose it is only fair for me to use this phrase 揑 was sick and tired of everything�. I relation to this, I really like Ian抯 comment 揥e can抰 afford to lose TE members�, ha, ha. These were the funniest birthday wishes I got so far today 😊

As mentioned before, we had the 4-day long Queen抯 Platinum Jubilee bank holiday at the beginning of June. We were tempted to get away but, in the end, we spent one day with friends in Whitby, the second day we had that lovely hike with some other friends along River Tees, which I presented recently. For the remaining two days, the weather forecast got a bit worse for Teesside, where I live, but surprisingly was magnificent for Scotland so we decided last minute to go just for two days to Glasgow, which we have never visited before. Even though the days are extremely long now, I felt like I must try some blue hour photos and the obvious choice for me was the riverside�

This photo was taken from the Bells Bridge along the River Clyde towards the Finnieston Crane (in the left) and the Squinty Bridge (in the right).

Hi Mariusz,
Blue hour on the River Clyde is probably one of the best possible views from Glasgow. Beautiful blue tones and smooth water surface. Block shaped buildings reveal some of the true Glasgow I guess.

Magnificent blue-hour picture, yet another of your favorite theme, Mariusz.
This crane is a prominent icon in Glasgow, reminding that this city was a pioneer of the Industrial Revolution in Britain more than a century ago.
My best regards,
Ike

I remember this canal and these structures. curiously the only day I feel heat in UK was in glasgow. I crossed this area in a sunday noon and everything was empty, I walked a lot. I liked a lot the city and my old hotel was huge and with personality. you even got special blue hour photos from these places.

take care

Hello Mariusz,
A great photo from Glasgow, I clearly remember that bridge and the old harbour crane close to it. The lights of the buildings and their reflections in the smooth water look great and I just love the deep blue colours in general.

Ciao Mariusz,the photo is truly spectacular, with lights and times like these you can see all your class, a great blue hour from Glasgow with exceptional quality. I hope that the surgery went well and it was a simple and not serious thing, and still happy birthday! Luciano.

Hi Mariusz
In the circumstances the title is quite appropriate although I can't say I recall ever hearing the song.
A great blue hour photo from Glasgow.
cheers

Hello Mariusz
Beautiful view of metal bridges and cranes at blue hour. In Iran, we use "Golden Time" instead of blue watches. Are these two different?
