Edinbugh from New Calton Burial Ground

Edinbugh from New Calton Burial Ground
New Calton Burial Ground was built as an overspill and functional replacement to Old Calton Burial Ground and lies half a mile to its east on Regent Road in Edinburgh, Scotland, on the south-east slopes of Calton Hill. On its southern edge it attaches to the north-east edge of the Canongate in the Old Town. It lies on a fairly steep south-facing slope with views to Holyrood Palace, the Scottish Parliament Building and Arthur’s Seat. Of particular note is the Stevenson family plot, the resting place of several notable members of the family of Robert Louis Stevenson. Quoted from Wikipedia

Salisbury Crags are a series of 46-metre (151 ft) cliffs at the top of a subsidiary spur of Arthur's Seat which rise on the west of Holyrood Park. Below the foot of the cliffs is a large and steep talus slope falling to the floor of Holyrood Park with a track known as the Radical Road running in the space between the two. This track was given its name after it was paved in the aftermath of the Radical War of 1820, using the labour of unemployed weavers from the west of Scotland at the suggestion of Walter Scott.

A beautifully composed shot. I love the layers of the graveyard, the city, Salisbury Crags and Arthur's Seat with the dramatic sky.

I also like the composition -- banded, but with curving bands. AN impressive review, especially in the big versions.

The dramatic sky and the graveyard look very dramatic, and the white buildings between the two lifts the picture beautifully Joe. Another superb b&w shot. Cheers, Rosa.

A fine b/w shot, the perspective is really interesting and a bit gloomy too...but the history of this place is fascinating and such a difference compared to the background. Thanks for sharing!
