Equinox - 20 Mar 2025 - 13.jpg

This atmospheric photograph captures a hazy sunset over the town of Alloa in Clackmannanshire, looking westward towards Stirling. The low, golden sun casts a warm glow across the sky, where soft clouds diffuse the light, creating a gradient of oranges, yellows, and gentle pinks. The distant Campsie Hills appear as layered silhouettes, fading into the misty horizon towards the skyline of Stirling and Stirling Castle.

In the middle ground, industrial structures dominate the skyline, including the glassworks factory with tall chimneys and sloping conveyor standing against the evening light. Their dark shapes contrast with the delicate hues of the sunset, emphasising the blend of industry and nature in the region.

To the right, church spires and rooftops of Alloa rise from the haze, their pointed forms adding character to the urban landscape. The town’s houses and buildings, some with rooftops catching the last glimmers of sunlight, are nestled among bare trees, which add depth and texture to the foreground.
This evocative scene highlights the contrast between Alloa’s industrial heritage and its natural surroundings, softened by the golden light of the setting sun.
