so, instead

As I trundled down the path from Saltire Square then along West Shore Road there was a archetypal white-sailed boat boating about in the Forth which looked like it might make a nice boat-in-the-sun sort of picture, but I didn't stop along McKelvie Parade whence I might have been able to get it but instead didn't stop until I was at the lighthouse by Lighthouse Park, by which point the boat was a backlit grey blur against the backlit grey buildings through the backlit haze.
