Lulling New Comers to the Festival Month with a showing of some nice sunlight right at the start of the month!

Got this shot from Arthurs Seat last night, looking over Edinburgh as the stom clouds gathered and the sensible people in the cars rushed home in a blur. In the foreground there is Dynamic Earth and the Scottish Parliament with Calton Burial Ground just behind, in the background Calton Hill sits on the right and as you gaze round to the left you take in the Balmoral Hotel and Castle on the extreme left.

Quite liking the reflected light on the surface of the Firth of Forth in this. You can also just about see the gathering of people on the grass in front of the observatory on Calton.

From the new to old, the Council HQ at Waverley Court in the foreground leading on to the old GPO building and the Balmoral Hotel

Holyrood Park

Shot this time from Arthurs Seat and with the rather large spire of The Hub very prominent too.

Took a wander around the Radical Road round Arthurs Seat last night, this is one of the results.

Wider view from previous shot.

Edimburgo, Escocia

Dynamic Earth visible in the bottom right, was an awesome sight from up on Arthurs Seat tonight. Unfortunately had to leave just when things were getting really good!
Seem to be making a habit of falling on my backside, slid down the hill in the dark this time tonight!

Sunset over Edinburgh

Edimburgo, Escocia

Now getting a chance to go through some shots that have piled up over the last couple of weeks. Looking over Holyrood Palace to the north of the city and over the Forth to Fife as the city lights come on.

The swans of St. Margarets Loch in Holyrood Park doing a bit of Nightswimming. Title inspired by youtu.be/ahJ6Kh8klM4

Looking out over Holyrood and the city in general as the lights come on and the light trails appear.

One more shot from that awesome night about 2 weeks ago now.

The Castle of course!
