Gardner's Crescent

July 2025 - Gardner's Crescent 

Weather - Heavy rain alternating with bright sunshine and everything in between 

Optional theme - Stairs and balconies 

Coffee - Loudon's, Fountainbridge. They ran out of rolls. Nice coffee though. 

Sandra used the rain to capture this atmospheric image of rain glistening on leaves

The rain was good for Ada's photo too - accentuating the colours and the textures of Rosemount Buildings

Everyone agreed Alex's photo of a very dejected teddy bear was very depressing 

Alison found a still life on the balconies of Rosemount Buildings

Arthur found some stairs in one of the deserted office buildings surrounding Lochrin basin

Eileen went to the Rosemount Colonies, where she found this very colourful still life of stairs and planting 

Ian C was the only one of us to photograph a general view of Rosemount Buildings 

Foot of the Walk

July 2025 - Foot of the Walk, Leith 

Weather - A lovely summer day 

Optional theme - Colour 

Coffee - Costa, Kirkgate Centre. There's not a lot to say about a Costa. 

A few of us admired some of the very talented graffiti art on show. Kate captured this striking portrait, positioned next to an equally striking blue door.  

Ada ventured to the wild flower garden at the Links. This photo captures a bee hovering by a flower. 

Colin photographed a colourful hanging basket. 

Alex captured a street scene - the caption on the graffiti reads "I hope you never fit in".

Ian C found colour in a display of fruit and veg. 

Further afield 

Ian E enjoyed a behind-the-scenes tour of Musselburgh Racecourse. This image of a horse nosing ahead won our Photo of the Week 

Maggie shared her photos from our last outing, when the theme was "grass and leaves".
