Photographer’s Note

This is the beautiful ceilling of the Corinthian Hotel which is a very nice hotel right in the heart of Glasgow in Ingram Street - just beside the City Hall.

The building was built in the Victorian era originally used by the Union Bank of Scotland and then as a court house. It was re-furbished in 2003. Its moulded ceilings, dome, chandeliers and works of art are a real treat if you're looking for a lovely place to have a cuppa and a rest before getting back into that busy, bustling wonderful city of Glasga.

I had no flash with me (typical) so up'd the ISO to 640 and opened up the aperture. It's still a bit grainy but such a lovely bit of architecture I couldn't ignore it.

Ciao Lisa,
non sempre è facile fare foto di particolari, ma questa mi risulta abbastanza curata e mostra un bel grafismo, soprattutto nei decori della cupola.

Well done!
Francesco

Great composition, which can be tough to do with interiors. And thanks for the excellent note! My mom is going to Glasgow and I'll be sure to tell her about the Corinthian.
