A CIRCUS currently taking place at Glasgow Fort has apologised after a photoshop blunder.
The Big Kid Circus has said sorry to anyone "who may have taken offence" to its drone shoot of the circus tent at the shopping centre recently.
It comes after social media users shared a picture which is understood to be one of the event's promotions.
In the image, it appears Easterhouse was photoshopped over and turned into a loch with mountains in the background.
Taking to X, one social media user said: "There's a circus at Glasgow Fort and in their promotional photos they have photoshopped a big loch and mountains into the background where Easterhouse is."
Following the picture, The Big Kid Circus has removed the image and shared an apology.
