David Allan<p>Came across this representation of 'The Green Man', sometimes called a 'foliate head', in a shop stocking weird and wonderful things inspired by mythical stories and ancient legends.<br>Often used as a motif in architecture and art, the image is of a face surrounded by foliage.<br>It is usually considered as a symbol of rebirth and of the cycle of new growth that occurs every spring.<br>Seems appropriate posting this now with the Spring Equinox arriving this coming Thursday morning.<br><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/greenman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>greenman</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/spring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spring</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/equinox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>equinox</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/symbol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>symbol</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a></p>
This Is My Glasgow<p>The Green Man on a building on Lancaster Terrace in Glasgow. Representing spring and rebirth, the Green Man appears on a surprisingly large number of buildings in the city, but this is one of the best I've found so far.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/greenman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>greenman</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/sculpture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sculpture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/stonecarving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stonecarving</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecturephotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecturephotography</span></a></p>
This Is My Glasgow<p>This collection of rather weird and wonderful sculpted heads are carved onto the corbels of decorative arches over the entrances to a series of tenement closes on Killearn Street in the Possilpark area of Glasgow. As far as I know they're unique and I've not come across any simlar ones on other tenements elsewhere in the city (yet!). </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgow</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/sculpture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sculpture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/grotesques" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>grotesques</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/greenman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>greenman</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/tenement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tenement</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/glasgowtenements" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>glasgowtenements</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/possilpark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>possilpark</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/architecturephotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>architecturephotography</span></a></p>

Substandard Nerd<p>Thrilled to have bagged tickets for Green Man 2025 and with less stress than previous years thanks to new and seemingly far more competent ticket outlet.</p><p>Bloody love that festival and happy to book before even a clue about line up has dropped as trust their curration completely.

Mike In The Winter Garden<p>Looking back at old photographs and there's that I had sketched this <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/greenman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>greenman</span></a> from a book of old carvings found in UK churches.</p><p>The green man has always been a source of fascination for me over the years.</p><p>There are numerous claims and counter claims from both <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/pagan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>pagan</span></a> and <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/Christian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Christian</span></a> perspectives; but I think he is the calm embodiment of the fecundity of <a href="https://toot.wales/tags/nature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nature</span></a> and represents the inevitable circle and cycle of life. </p><p>I may get round to doing a proper painting one of these days. </p><p><a href="https://toot.wales/tags/deathinlife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>deathinlife</span></a></p>

Alchemilla Mollis<p>When I am very busy, I tend to derail myself from the important things by doing pointless outfit things for no particular reason.
