I really liked the view from the Calton hill in Edinburgh. So I took there a lot of photos, trying different compositions and different lenses. And of course I had to take at least one panorama, and here it is.
This is a panorama from 3 shots, each one blended from 5 exposures. Taken in Edinburgh, Scotland.
From time to time I update my list of photographers, which I suggest you visit. And today I again updated the list with links to three great photographers. You can find the list in the menu on the right or directly here.
If you ever seen a photo of Edinburgh, there is a very high change you have seen one similar to this one. This really is the most popular view of Edinburgh I have seen :)

The location if this train station in Edinburgh is quite interesting. Having it so in the middle of the city, and in a small valley, that most of the time you are above the station, when you are in the city. And then at night, when they turn on the lights, it looks even more crazy :)

I think I mentioned this with my other Forth rail bridge photo. While I was there I had to wait until really late until they turned on the light. At least the wind stopped after the sunset and the water level fell down, so I could get close to the bridge. Still to pass the time I took some photos and this is one of them.

Every-time I post a photo, I also include a small map, which shows the location from where the photo was taken. So if you want to take a similar photo you can look at it. To view the map, you have to open the post with the photo you are interested in. To do this just click on the post name, or click on “read more” under the photo. The map will be shown under the photo. To view the map bigger, just click on the Google logo, and it will open the map in new window, centered on the photo spot.
I always thought that it was called the Scottish monument, just when I researched photo spots in Edinburgh I found out I was wrong. But it could be called the Scottish monument, as it really of of those things that you immediately notice when you are there :) I took this photo quite late in the evening, and as I was waiting for the shots to be taken a girl passed behind me and said “That will be a nice photo” and continued walking. And I have to agree with her :)
