Corridor and Columns

Corridor and Columns
“Corridor and Columns” — A walkway lined with stone columns and topped with stone arches, University of Glasgow.

I have previously shared a few other photographs of almost this exact spot — a walkway beneath a wing of Glasgow University that separates two inner courtyards. These enormous columns support several stories of building above, and these porticos are filled with light and give the courtyards are greater sense of space.

These aren’t easy to photograph, largely due to some light challenges, though composition can also be tricky. Fortunately, because the light comes from the courtyards it is softer and more diffused than it might otherwise be and it fills in the shadows.
