Footpath to the bus stop

Footpath through grass

From the road to the bus stop, there’s a footpath made by people taking the most direct route. Over and over again you see this happen: planners design paths and steps where people ought to go, ignoring what must surely be their own experience: footpaths happen where people want them to be.

Water of Leith Paths: blossom

I love the Water of Leith Walkway at any time of year, but at this time of year it is just ridiculously lovely, with the leaves still fresh and new and the blossom all over everything. The classic comparator is “like snow”, but it’s actually more like dandruff, really, if dandruff were astonishingly pretty.
