Edinburgh HoHo Photography Guide — Where to Shoot

Photo Guide — Make Your Shots Pop

Best times

• Golden hour (sunrise or sunset) for warm light.
• Overcast days are great for soft details and avoiding harsh shadows.

Top vantage points

• Castle esplanade: sweeping city views.
• Calton Hill: monuments and skyline.
• Arthur's Seat: panoramic wide shots.

Practical tips

• Use a polariser for reduced glare on water and brighter skies.
• Bring a small tripod for low-light long exposures near the Castle.
