This was taken from the corner of Shandwick Place and Lothian Road, just before the start of Princes Street. I wanted to zoom in to capture this strangely shaped lamppost in the foreground, with two churches each side and Edinburgh Castle dominating the background. Because I zoomed in it compressed the perspective and the churches appear to be just in front of the castle, which is much further behind them.
