Every year around the end of May, Glasgow experiences the rare sunset aligned with the Great Western Road. This time around, I lived quite close to the spot and the weather played its part, giving me a beautiful and long golden hour to play with. Naturally, I grabbed my camera and an old 35mm lens, and took some unobtrusive slow motion and timelapse footage, street-style. Whether you view it as an observative character study of a busy intersection, or simply a slice of every-day life in Glasgow, I hope this video conveys a sense of being there. Having moved away from Glasgow since, it sure reminds me of how much I enjoyed my time there.
