It’s been a while, but here I present a few photos of the Aurora Borealis in Portobello, Edinburgh. Hopefully will add more soon.


What if i said Leith has a beach?
Above is the little that remains of Leith Sands, a once long strip of beach that had historical significance. Home to horse racing, duels, pirate execution!
Perhaps once vast enough to rival Portobello, Leith Sands all but vanished during the creation of what is Scotland’s largest enclosed deep water port.
It is now inaccessible blocked of last year
As we slowly emerge from lock down, some restrictions are eased I managed to get a wee wander around the city. Still very quiet, very eerie, it seems somewhat Post-apocalyptic, yes one should stop being so melodramatic.
Most of the photos were taken on a Sunday afternoon, this would never be possible in normal circumstances.
Duddingston Loch, the last natural freshwater loch in the City of Edinburgh
As part of the Doors open day 2019, as usual Lothian buses displayed some of their vintage buses on George street. Seeing some of the Madder/Maroon livery interiors one had a tang of nostalgia, below a small gallery of photos.
It’s the last Monday of August, so it’s the Usual Virgin Money Fireworks Concert, this year from Inverleith Park
