Abandoned Botanic Rail Station
The station was part of the Glasgow Central Railway system and opened in 1896. It saw its last passengers in 1939. The towering spire in the background is Òran Mór, whose construction began in 1862.

I was on the hunt for a Nikon 28-80 kit lens to mate with my F80 for a versatile and lightweight travel combo. The lens I eventually found came bundled with a Nikon F55 body (known as the N55 in the U.S.) which, for my purposes, amounted to a glorified rear lens cap. But the camera turned out to be far more than that.
