Stockbridge

A little bit of sun between the showers.

Saxe Coburg Place

A lovely little Georgian Square.  The cars do rather spoil it, should be carriages.

Samples

Mellis the cheesemongers in Deanhaugh Street occasionally have someone offering samples to passers by.  Gone a bit quiet.

Honest Abe

Using the release of the film "Lincoln" a shot of the memorial (again) in the Old Calton Burial Ground.  The first statue of Lincoln outside the United States.  (It was either that or go out in cold, wet, miserable conditions).

Stockbridge Market

Blustery, dull and cold but the market goes on. Open on Sundays.

New Species?

Popped out of the egg-box like this.  Fiendish genetic manipulation I think.  Lack of posts due to both cameras being out of commission.  One now fixed.

Gable End.

Georgian gable end in Howe Street.  Making good use of the roof space.

Grey rather than White.

The snow keeps trying but can't quite make it.  Ferry Road.

Going, Going....

Almost gone.  Very little snow remaining while plenty down south and even in Paris. My favourite New Town doors in Heriot Row.

Sledging

Enough snow in the city for some sledging in Queen Street Gardens. Lack of posts due to Trade show in London.

Newhaven

From the harbour.

Statue

"Horse and Rider" by Eoghan Bridge just off  Rutland Square.

Rossie Place

Off Easter Road.

Pigeon

Yep, a pigeon.

Easter Road

The Hibs football stadium from Calton Hill.

Dawn

Dawn coming to chase away the moon this morning.  From Graham Street in Leith, looking towards Arthur's Seat and the Salisbury Crags.

Bridge

The pedestrian bridge spanning Leith Street.

Old Calton

The Old Calton Burial Ground from Regent Road.  The tall structure is the Martyr's Memorial and to the right David Hume's Mausoleum.

Old Royal High School

In Pursuit of the Question Mark

The George Wyllie retrospective exhibition. A month to run, don't miss it.

Ramp

Ramp entrance to Waverley Market

Wet Windscreen

Streetlights, car lights and rain.

St Andrew's House

The old Art Deco Scottish Office building on Regent Road seen from the side.

Calton Hill

The buildings in the foreground are in Waterloo Place.  Behind them the old buildings are on Calton Hill, a steep little street which comes up from Leith Street to join Waterloo Place. Calton Hill proper to the rear.   A sunny day for the New Year.
