A monochrome photograph. In the bottom-left foreground an ice-cream van is parked in front of a fence behind which is a, largely rocky, hillside. The van, in front of which is a rock with a triangular ‘roundabout’ traffic sign, is facing the camera. To the right of the van a few people are queuing.

Rocks and ice in summer.

A monochrome photograph. On stage, a woman – wearing boots, a black baseball cap and a white dress – bends slightly forward to look at a music stand. In front of her are pieces of equipment while above her a bit of bunting is suspended. To her left is a microphone.

A colour photograph. We are looking up at an old, derelict-looking, red-sandstone building with vegetation growing from its exterior. The sky is clear and blue.

A monochrome photograph. A row of old terraced houses sits next to a domed building. In front of these buildings is a temporary fence. On the extreme left, part of a tree is visible. The sky is mainly covered with clouds.

A monochrome photograph of a small toy yacht positioned in a shed window in Footdee, Aberdeen, with the dark shapes of nearby house roofs and chimneys softly outlined in the background, creating a calm and reflective scene where textures and forms are clearly emphasised.

A colour photograph in which we can see a car, side-on, with a woman in each front seat. Beyond the car is a hedge with a tree behind it. Further back, and to the right of the tree, two women are standing in the entrance of a converted church.

A colour photograph. We are looking through a dimly lit pedestrian underpass. Just beyond the underpass is the entrance to a subway station, where people are standing and walking.

A grainy monochrome image of a short and rather ornate three-part streetlamp is superimposed on a grainy light-brown background. The streetlamp is at an angle and is almost touching the top-right corner of the picture.

A monochrome photograph that has been modified to give it a yellow background. The top stories of a modern high-rise building can be seen beyond a motorway bridge. The bridge, and the buildings and trees around it, are more or less silhouetted against the yellow sky, as are a lamppost on the bridge and a wire extending across the sky in front of the high-rise building and the lamppost.

Another fairytale in the supermarket. Stash of late 90s/early 00s Chapman mags from a golden age of Scot lit mags, 50p each from the wee charity bookshop in Broughton Road Tesco. Methinks someone is clearing out their cupboards. This is history.

A monochrome photograph. We are looking up a city street. Facing us is a single-deck bus, while on the opposite side of the street is a line of cars. Beyond the traffic is a modern hotel and beyond *that* is the Finnieston, or Stobcross, Cran(e) – a giant cantilever crane constructed in the earlier twentieth century.

A monochrome photograph two showing barriers. Over the top of these, in the background, can be seen a crane and the upper stories of buildings while in the foreground young people – dressed for summer – are drinking and socialising upstairs on a temporary ‘Innis & Gunn’ structure. On one of the barriers are the words ‘Enjoying a street show?’.
