A rather intense rainbow on this afternoon's dog walk rising above the Victorian townhouses of Park Terrace in the West End of Glasgow.

Love these dafodills catching today's morning sun on a tenement window box at Partick Cross in Glasgow.

The neighbouring Central Station, a key element of Victorian Glasgow and an important hub for modern communters, is closed, but is hopefully unharmed

Smoke still billows from the burned out remains and drifts across the centre of Glasgow. This is not a good scene to wake up to, but at least no one in the building or any firefighters were hurt.

After yesterday's fire, the familiar dome of the 175 year old Union Corner building is gone, as is the facade which once stretched down Union Street to Caledonian Chambers (where there is a side entrance to Central Station).

If it is this building that's been affected and if it's as bad the the current reports suggest, this is going to have a major impact on the local streetscape, and the views down Renfield Street, as well as causing major disruption to the roads around Central Station.

As far as I can work out from the news footage, it's the building in the centre of this photo (which I took last year) which has been affected.

There's currently a major fire on Union Street in the centre of Glasgow. There are no reports of casualties, but apparently parts of the building involved have collapsed.

It's by Be Nice Signs and is on the side of the Grateful Gallery in the Gartnethill area of the city.

January Blues. This seemed like an appropriate mural to post on a wet and stormy day here in Glasgow, just before I head out into the darkness to take the dog for her early morning walk.

It's that time of year when large numbers of young Christmas trees, now free of their festive duties, can be seen roaming the streets of Glasgow. They like to hang out at bus stops, drinking buckfast and shouting at passersby.

The 53 metre tall Finnieston Crane on the north bank of the Clyde against this evening's sunset. Constructed in 1928, it was designed to lift Glasgow-built steam locomotives into the holds of ships so they could be transported all over the world.

Good morning, Glasgow. This was today's sunrise behind the Glasgow Science Centre at 08:46 GMT. This is one minute earlier than the latest sunrise of the winter (which occurs for just over a week between Christmas Eve and New Year's Day).

The 1860s Kibble Palace glasshouse in the Glasgow Botanic Gardens lit by the last bit of this afternoon's sun before the rain clouds blotted it out once again.

The display of William Murray clay pipes is just there for interest and isn't for sale (although I can potentially make these up on request).

That's me all set up for today's Byres Road Market in Hillhead Library. It's on between 11am and 4pm, and I've got my usual Glasgow-themed books, Christmas cards, calendars, prints and the last of my tenement tile coasters.

I love seeing the swans in Victoria Park in Glasgow, but they're not usually chasing each other around the flower beds!
