I took these Edinburgh views screenshots from The Bidding Room tv programme which comes from Leith Theatre these days. A couple are not too obvious. Any comments?

Is the 2nd one looking up the River Esk at Musselburgh? Looks like the all weather section on the bend of the racecourse on the left of the image.

Most are fairly obvious but last one is a bit trickier.
Edinburgh is a stunning city, which a lot of folk take for granted.

Out of interest, can you identify 1. from yesterday?

I don't know that one from yesterday, but it somehow feels like the Canonmills/Inverleith area for some reason 🤔

The botanics ?

The botanics ?

That’s what I thought.

The botanics ?

I've not been to the botanics for ages but that feels about right

[Pretty Boy]

The botanics ?

I think it might specifically be the Japanese section of the Botanics. That has quite a prominent water feature similar in shape to the one in the image.

Number 4 is easy... the sea front from Eastfield to Portobello

Dunno if it's the same thing and I've just mis-remembered the name but isn't it the Rock Garden?


:dunno:

[Jim44]

How about these?

That’s what I’d have said, scrambled up there many times when visiting g with my grand parents as a kid.

From the Hillside Crescent/Brunswick Street photo, what are these buildings? I’ve not been down there for years.

Cheers. I was born and raised in Leith and Newhaven many years ago but don’t recognise a lot of the ‘new’ buildings there.
