Waiting..

I like the contrast of the humble phone box and bikes set against the grand Bank of Scotland building in Edinburgh.

moonlighting

There was a fantastic moon tonight, and the weather was lovely-crisp and cold, but no wind. I hate wind! So I ventured into the city centre to practise my night photography. I've got a lot to learn, but I quite like this one:

Long exposure

I bought a tripod the other day-from 7dayshop.com-£12.99 including delivery!
Anyway I took it out the other night and tried a long exposure shot.
This is the result:

I love the starbursts-but shame about the traffic cones!

Craigmillar Castle

Emily and I went to craigmillar Castle today. I can't begin to describe how cold it was. The castle is, as ou can see, a ruin, and the wind and rain blew into every nook and cranny. I would like to go back again when it's warm enough to really explore it, and to enjoy the views from the top!

Art cars

There was a parade of 'art cars' in Edinburgh today. Artists had decorated various vehicles-from bikes to milk floats and hearses.
Today's photo is some detail from one of cars!

Loch Ard

I have been very poor at updating this blog-and have defnitely let the 365 slip.
Anyway, here is one of my favourites from the day out to Loch Ard the other week.
Love these boathouses reflected in the water.
