Castle Rock
A shot of Edinburgh Castle from West Princes Street Gardens. This view lets you see part of the formidable rock upon which it stands.
Edinburgh Castle dominates the city of Edinburgh like no other castle in Scotland, and Edinburgh Castle is unequalled in the whole of the British Isles. Over one thousand years of history sit on top of the famous Edinburgh rock.
Three bracketed JPGs converted to HDR in Photomatix.
