NUMBER 936

BENCHMARKS continued

This one in Edinburgh, Scotland, from Michael Byrne is on Edinburgh Castle Esplanade.

Below: A 'mark on Edinburgh Castle Esplanade, Edinburgh.
 
Above: Looking south on Edinburgh Castle Esplanade with the 'mark in the centre of the photo, bottom left of the pillar. Unfortunately, the seating structure from the Military Tattoo was still in the process of deconstruction. As such, the Esplanade in front of the castle was fenced off on both sides. Michael Byrne managed to record the 'mark with a zoom shot through the fence, which shows central on both photos, being on the lower left of the small pillar.
