Overlooking Edinburgh, Scotland, UK from the Edinburgh Castle. The hill in the distance is Arthur's Seat; we climbed to the top in the pouring rain, but that afternoon while at the castle the sun came out and shone brilliantly on the hill. I've pumped up the colors in an attempt to get the photo to look exactly as I remember the actual scene. After a gray, rainy day the moments of sunshine in the evening were very, very welcome.

Gorgeous! I'm really enjoying the pictures you've been posting. I've never traveled much outside of my "area" (Oregon, Washington, Cali), so its great to see shots from somewhere else. I'd love to travel some day, but with a toddler I dont see it happening any time soon!

And where are those Holga shots? I keep checking back to see if you've got any up yet! LoL

Fantastic color and light! Love the dynamic sky and the balance of shadow and highlights.
