My final day in Edinburgh was a sunny one so I made the most of this and went for a stroll by the Water of Leith - the river which runs just north of the city centre. The crisp shadows and strong contrast just demanded a monochrome approach.
St Bernard’s Well
For most of my stroll the walkway was well above the river, but I did find one spot where I could sneak down onto the riverbank.
Playing with longer exposure times to capture the movement of the water as it rushed by.
Further west I found Dean Village, where the buildings tower above the river.
After lunch I wandered back into the centre of the city and spent some time exploring the graveyard at St Cuthbert’s Church, just beneath the castle, which looms on the Edinburgh skyline.
