Surgeons Hall

Surgeons Hall has a Pathology Museum where you can view William Burke's death mask.  It has many fine rooms and is now a popular venue for weddings.

Water of Leith

This is a view of the Water of Leith as it passes through Dean Village.  We are looking towards the Dean Bridge which spans the little gorge created by the river.  The trees now obscure the bridge.  The Church was originally built as an early electricity sub station, a disguise so as not to spoil the area.  No longer needed for electric purposes it has been fitted out as a church.  Isn't life strange.

Leith Links.

Sticking with the flowers, crocuses or do you get croci?

Daffodils

These are a miniature variety but the first daffs I have seen this year.  Nature is trying to sucker us into believeing that spring has arrived but I suspect she is not entirely truthful.

King's Theatre

No new extensions for this old lady but a little sunshine cheers up the sandstone.

The Traverse

Cheek by jowl with the Usher Hall is the Traverse Theatre also now in a smart new suit.

Usher Hall

A grey day in Edinburgh.  The Usher Hall with its new glass extension.

Swanning About

Pond life in Edinburgh.

The main hall in Jenners Department Store.  Jenners has been an Edinburgh landmark since 1895 but in recent years it's been more like a mall with different companies operating different sections but the building remains its old self.

Snowdrops

Can spring be far behind?  Probably.

Winter Harbour

A cold and misty day.  This is Newhaven Harbour.

Victoria Park

After a very grey and wet day once again a little light to finish.  This is one of the new lamposts along the main path through the park.

Corstorphine Golf Club

Looking back to the city over Corstorphine Golf Club.

Leith Police

The signage on Leith Police Station.  Thankfully I have no reason to be dismissed or otherwise.
