Stunning statues

Edinburgh city centre features a rich collection of historic and artistic statues, heavily concentrated around Princes Street Gardens, the Royal Mile, and Parliament Square though they can be found just about anywhere within the city centre. Today's task is to choose three or four statues and, using interesting points of view, perspective, focus on detail, in-camera wizardry or post-processing, produce images that are much more than just record shots.
Meet on the steps of the RSA on the Mound from where a number of statues are within easy walking distance. Refreshments from 2.30 p.m. in Milnes on the corner of Hanover St. and Rose St.
