Christmas Eve in Glasgow Photo

Photographer’s Note

Christmas Eve, December 24, is the day before Christmas Day, the celebrated birthday of Jesus.

Night time on Christmas Eve is a very exciting time for young children. It is the time when Father Christmas (Santa) comes.

Buchanan Street is not so busy as at the last weekend. But still many people in a shopping and going out rush.

My third Christmas in Glasgow, but definitely the best one!

Merry Christmas!

Hi Matt,

Looks like a very busy street typical of the holiday season.
I like your POV here capturing the people and the street leading away from you. Not as sharp as expected for a dimly lit environment but composition is good.

Regards and seasons greetings,
Andrew

Hi Matt,
Really nice shot. I like the color tones and some of the blurred people and the bus going by.
You have a good viewpoint to capture this. It looks like you were slightly elevated, looking down. Well done and Merry Christmans, Mike

Hi Matt!

It is great to see the exciting Christmas atmosphere, all the busy people on the picture buy presents in the last minute before going home. Very good catch and job!
Happy holidays,

Hi Mat,

This is a good shot, the colours are great. You have created a good POV by using the elavation of the stairs at Buchanan Gallaries. You have captured the last minute rush for presents well.

Hope you had an enjoyable christmas,

Scott

Hi,
A busy evening before Christmas Day; I like various colour & people busy in their work here. Different types/colours of light makes the scene more beautiful. TFS.
