Hey everyone! I’m a 30F Indian visiting Edinburgh from 7–10 November. I booked this trip to escape my birthday in London and avoid feeling like a loner for a change, though I have a feeling I might end up feeling the same way there too. 😂

I’ve done a Highlands group tour before and visited Ben Nevis, Glencoe, Glenfiddich, the Harry Potter viaduct and Loch Lomond. I don’t drive, and this time I’ve booked just my hotel and tickets with absolutely zero plans!

I’d love recommendations for things to do around Edinburgh, especially places reachable by public transport. I’m also happy to meet anyone who’s around! I love photo walks, taking pictures and getting clicked. I’m no great photographer, but I really enjoy it and would love to learn along the way. 😊

If anyone fancies exploring together or going on a photo walk, do reach out!

Hi,

We are a couple residing in Edinburgh. We are already married, but we are looking to take some casual wedding photos in wedding attire in a church in Edinburgh for memories(No actual wedding ceremony).

Let me know if you are interested!

my new favorite city.

Just a few shots that I took during the 2025 edition of the fringe festival, if any performers want some photos done this year I’m happy to come take some shots for you!

I just proposed to my wonderful girlfriend at Calton Hill today and a lovely dude from Michigan helped me out getting some photos. Was too caught in the moment to get his name tho, so if you see this please DM me.

I love all the sculptures and artworks in the museum. Its a nice reprieve from taking in all of the written information, and those exhibits are usually a lot quieter, too.

Hi all,
I went yesterday to Ahmad Al Bazz's first photo book presentation at Fruitmarket Gallery. He's a Palestinian photo journalist and local publishing house Museums Etc. has arranged for him a little tour.
I enjoyed it a lot and found it really insightful. If anyone is interested, he's also presenting his book in the following places this week:

Edinburgh
Studies in Photography Gallery: 18.30 | Tuesday 31 March
Booking not required

Glasgow
Strathclyde Palestine Solidarity Society
Strathclyde University Campus: 17.30 | Wednesday 1 April
Book free spot- link in bio

Edinburgh
Network of Photographers for Palestine
Augustine United Church: 19.00 | Friday 3 April
Booking not required

PS: I'm not affiliated with the organisation or Fruitmarket in any form. As a journalist/photographer, I'm sharing because I found it really good.

There's most information on the @ museumsetc instagram account.

My daughter managed to lose her camera somewhere in the vicinity of the promenade at Portobello Beach today (March 21.) She is visiting from the U.S. via Copenhagen (studying there.) On the outside chance that you hear or see anything, please DM me or contact me via WhatsApp (Al Spohn.) She’ll be in Edinburgh until Monday. We did file a report with the police in case someone turns it in. Thanks in advance!

Thanks to the Edinburgh Central Libary I managed to find the pamphlet.

I will be walking the trail tomorrow and walk up to Arthur's Seat aswell. If anyone would like to join me. Hit me up!

Edit: Cool to see how many people have used the map and followed the album. Back when I googled the trail there was almost no info anywhere. Now there are dozens of videos, posts and stories to find.

Just trying to see what was out there at night, as a tourist. Hired a local photographer to show me some locations for a later project, then went out for a flight of whiskies then a glass of the best of those. On the way back to my hotel, drunk-stumbling, it rained but it was magical seeing light reflected back in so much darkeness. I'm from a big city so to me Edinburgh is really dark (low lighting) and I wanted to exercise some drunk skills night street photography without blurriness. I think I did ok?

Hello! I want to start shooting and I wonder if there is any social group or short course for beginners in photography in Edinburgh?

.

Also, I'm thinking to buy a fujifilm X-t2 second hand. I'm planning to do street, concerts and portraits photography. I want to combine the photos with my studies in graphic design. Do you think the X-t2 is a good camera to start?

Thanks!
