The final Edinburgh print! Featuring the Royal Mile facing Deacon Brodies Tavern and the Bank of Scotland on Lawmarket. Detailing the old town in its shimmering evening beauty with its cobbled streets and stone walls, ancient alleyways and twinkling lights has been a dream.
On my visit to Edinburgh I found myself photographing every single pub obsessively along the Royal Mile, keen to spot the most ornate signage, the best hanging baskets, my favourite window displays and of course getting a pint in each.
I hope I've done it justice. I'd love to hear about your experiences along the Royal Mile!
