Hi Dido I have only just come upon your great blog and have sat here most of the afternoon reading and admiring! It's now dark! Edinburgh is my home city, though I live away from it now, which I thought I knew rather well, but I have learned a few things today! Must tell you that there is a calotype (in the Peacock) of "The Pastor's visit" - in which my great great great grandfather is the church elder standing behind the minister talking to the fishwives! 60 years after that picture was taken, D O H's great niece married the elder's great grandson - my grandparents! Loved your photos. I'll be back! Evee
That's a great picture. Sorry I've not been around to comment for a while, but I've enjoyed catching up. Edinburgh seems so much more tasteful at Christmas than Glasgow!

Wow, this picture is almost magical. It would make a great Christmas card!
This backlight picture is so eyecatching. Great job!
Exceptional image. Really is a stan alone shot. You nailed that sunflre to your advantage, and that's not easy to do.
