    The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, known as The Earl and Countess of Strathearn in Scotland, opened our museum this afternoon. What an amazing day! #RoyalVisitDundee

    V&A Dundee on the water's edge. mist is in and obscures the horizon and land beyond so it looks like the museum is flowing in thin air. blue water and sky fringe the top and bottom edges of the misty image.

    📢 V&A Dundee will open on Saturday 15 September 📢 Get it in your diary!  vandadundee.org/opening-date #VADundee
    View of V&A Dundee at the base of the building, surrounded by a shallow pool of water causing a crisp reflection of the building above. The close-up of the lined panels on the building are reflected below, and because the building expands out as it goes up, the mirror effect make it look like the building is on top of itself like two pyramids point to point - it looks quite strange and reality-bending.

    When the haar finally retreats and takes your breath away with it 🤯
    Panoramic image of V&A Dundee leaning out into the Tay River. The museum is on the far right of the image where the bright sun is setting with a gentle orange glow. The image moves across to the left with the dark blue water leaning right across to Fife at the far side, with a small strip of haar still sitting just in front. On the far left, the Tay Road Bridge glows orange and is reflected in the mirror-like water.
