Edinburgh and Leith - early morning

Image: © M J Richardson Taken: 14 Feb 2012

Returning to Edinburgh from a trip abroad - transatlantic flights tend to arrive just before a winter dawn. The dark patch under the wingtip light is Holyrood Park [Arthur's Seat], Leith is on the shore line in the middle, and the 45 degree line heading up right is possibly Leith Walk, continuing right as Princes Street.
