The Meadows


The Meadows is an area of greenery just to the south of the city centre. It is crisscrossed by a number of paths and this is one of them. This is a tree-lined one with the trees at this early point in spring waiting to get their leafy coat.

It's Saturday


On Saturdays groups of women descend on Edinburgh for hen night parties. They wear some pretty crazy clothes, this group being at the tamer end. Converted buses full of these individuals making as much noise as possible crawl the streets. Oh well, whatever you do for enjoyment.

Edinburgh Castle



Another iconic landmark. Contrasting Images from both summer and winter. The summer one from a warm summer evening and the winter one from the end of November 2010. The latter was the prelude to one of the coldest winters I've experienced in Scotland. This was just the beginning of a very cold spell with lots of snow.

Portobello Beach


I don't know who he is, but very engrossed in his book - he's even missing the swimmers.

Forth Road Bridge


The Forth Road Bridge and very soon there will be a second road bridge.

Forth Rail Bridge


No photo-blog of Edinburgh would be complete without one of this world-iconic structure. You never get tired of looking at it.
