Beautiful Rosslyn (Roslin) Chapel - Inside and Out

Details

Featured in Dan Brown's novel: The Da Vinci code, this historic building is wreathed in mystery, and is an incredibly beautiful building.

We are having a special opportunity to take photographs inside and outside Rosslyn chapel after the normal hoards of tourists have departed for the day (hence the later than normal start time). As this is a summer's evening we hope to get some shots where we have multicoloured light coming through the stained glass windows as well as being able to take close up images of the incredible carved stone ornamentation

PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE WILL BE AN ENTRANCE FEE and Rosslyn have kindly asked if attendees would be happy to share any images for their website.

We will finish off with a drink (and perhaps a bite to eat) at the Rosslyn Hotel which is a 5 minute walk from the chapel and a 2 minute walk to the bus stop for returning to Edinburgh.

What to bring:
We would recommend a wide angle lens and a small (e.g. Gorillapod style) pocket tripod if you have one.
Tripods are not allowed

Travel to and from Rosslyn Chapel
Bus:
The number 37 Lothian Bus has frequent services. The nearest stop is at Rosslyn Hotel, which is 5 minutes walk from the Chapel. I would recommend getting the bus that arrives at 16.36 to allow time to walk to the chapel and to have a quick look around the displays at the entrance.

Car:
For those who prefer to drive there is free parking at Rosslyn Chapel

If you can offer a lift to others please do post a message in the meetup comments so others can request a lift.
