Photo Friday: Edinburgh Inspiration
It’s Photo Friday again, and today’s shot is a new angle on a familiar site: .
This photo is of the Canongate Wall, which is one of the many pieces of outdoor public art featured around the Parliament. The wall is made up of several types of stones from Scotland, and features 26 quotations from noteworthy Scottish figures. It’s a tourist favourite, and here are a few of the sayings you can enjoy:
Abair ach beagan is abair gu math e.

Say but little and say it well.
Proverb
The rose of all the world is not for me.I want for my partOnly the little white rose of ScotlandThat smells sharp and sweet – and breaks the heart.Hugh MacDiarmid (1892-1978) “The Little White Rose”© Carcanet Press
A visit to the Canongate wall is not complete without a stop at across the street.
