Glasgow's Necropolis is a beautiful place, perched on a hill near the cathedral.

The entrances of some of the tombs, like this one, have either collapsed or been forced open and are used as shelters at night. But it allowed me to have a look inside. This one was particularly grand and I was fascinated by the dramatic light and shade.
