Glasgow, Scotland-based documentary, editorial and portrait photographer Jeremy Sutton-Hibbert

I recently had the pleasure of working on assignment photographing with American journalist Miles Howard, for the Boston Globe Magazine, as he walked from Edinburgh to Glasgow exploring the landscape and talking with people about the newly strengthened bonds between his home city of Boston and Scotland.

In light of the new found friendship between, and soon official twinning of Boston and Glasgow - a result of the enjoyment that the Scottish football Tartan Army fans brought to Boston during the World Cup and the hospitality they were offered, journalist Miles Howard flew over to Scotland, to further explore Scottish hospitality and friendship.

Walking from Edinburgh to Glasgow using the historic Union, and Forth and Clyde canals, Miles chatted with Scots about their visits to Boston, and to the World Cup, and how they saw the new friendship between the two cities deepening and developing, and what opportunities exist perhaps for a strengthening of the relationship.

A magzine spread showing a colour image of man walking beside a canal on which many children are canoeing, and the title reads 'The Scots brought joy to Boston. I tried to follow it home.'

The story is out now on the Boston Globe website.

Over four days I joined Miles to explore the canals, and the landscape he passed through, and to meet with people he interviewed and chatted with about the connections between Boston and Glasgow, and how those bonds may be deepened and cultivated.
