Reflecting Windows — City Relections #6 — LPM – Photo Adventure/Monday Window

·

Hi All 👋 Staying in Glasgow with more reflections for LPM’s Reflections Challenge and Ludvig’s Monday Window.

This picture is somewhat chaotic and so requires some explanation. On Buchanan Street in Glasgow is the Allsaints Spitalfields store which has large glass windows on the front and side; what is unique is that the windows are filled with old singer sewing machines (see below). Even in this shot you can see the reflection of the buildings lining Royal Bank Place.

The next shot was taken looking back towards Buchanan Street; there are reflections of Buchanan Street, and Royal Bank Place, and yes that is a Doctor Who Tardis!

    They don’t look full sized? Were they models?

      They are actually full sized; I think they look smaller than today’s machines because they don’t have the electronics housed in the body.

        Ahh maybe that is it . . my Mum had one but it was set inn a table with foot /tread-wheel so I am probably confusing the extra sections with the actual size of the machine

    A bit more chaos really works in these! The old sewing machines are super cool.

    I love the the fact that there are sewing machines overlaying the coats in the first reflection! Both are beautiful.
