Constitution Street courtyard

In this small courtyard off Constitution Street, cars hide from the tramworks.

(But the Suruchi Too is still there, still providing carry-out or eat-in meals, though no lunches while the street is closed…)

Cobbles and grass

cobbles and grass at sunset

All over Edinburgh, the same grey cobbles. Between the cobbles, tiny valleys of dirt. Where people often walk, or cars run, nothing grows. In any area sheltered from traffic, you can see these tiny gardens forming: grass and moss and even flowers. Green is tough. This photo was taken at sunset.
