Exploring Fountainbridge

Having moved to Gorgie as a stepping stone to our longer term move to Torridon, we’re continuing to enjoy exploring a new neighbourhood.

Nearby Fountainbridge, the name originated in 1763 and derived from the Foullbridge Well of “singularly sweet water” according to Wikipedia, is a short wander and takes in the Union Canal which provides a lovely traffic-free artery from Tollcross to Westerhailes and beyond. We had noticed the imposing Fountainbridge Library but it took a friend to point out this impressive view from the steps at the southern end of The Telfer Subway from Dalry Road. This aspect takes in the whole of the northern exterior of this ‘art deco infused neo-classical building’ with its large window area with frieze running across it and the tower with its long, thin, vertical window.

It has an octagonal cupola and stairwell and our thanks to the library staff who didn’t rush me when trying to find a way to get this image avoiding the banister at closing time!

The Union Canal provides us a pleasant route to the Cameo Cinema which means we have had plenty opportunity to photograph it at night. The handy Leamington Lift Bridge provided a steady point for a longer exposure shot to catch the night reflections in the water.

The bridge also provides a higher vantage point to look back to Lochrin Basin, on this occasion being readied for the Canal Festival in June by Scottish Canals‘ weed cutter.

And of course, as well as offering vantage points, high and low, the bridge is itself a rather fine piece of engineering as you can see from this photo taken a few years ago.

And, finally, a reminder that we are online using the following –

An update – we’re back!

An oldie. A light summer shower was heading eastwards in sunshine. In the foreground are the tops of trees, at left, The Balmoral Hotel, in the distance, the spires of The West End and, at right, The Forsyth’s Building, without the top globe at the time this image was taken (2015). There are more rainy Edinburgh images in our web gallery.

Hello again – We paused our blog back in 2017, but are delighted to be re-starting it.

Back then we’d just had some exhibitions and had created a lot of work in our customary black and white style. We were active on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Flickr, our blog and in real life. This was all in addition to our day jobs; in the end we found it all too much to do so made the decision to scale back for a bit.

This was coupled with a desire to remove any engagement with social media run by Mark Zuckerberg, given the amount of personal data harvesting, dissemination of misinformation and worse. We cut back to just Twitter and real life. Although we have serious doubts about Musk-led Twitter, we’ll see how it plays out.

We’ve had so much support for what we do, sold prints and cards locally with our independent partners and enjoyed meeting folk out and about in the city, all of which we have really appreciated, so thank you.

The roots of Henni.Photo were in late 2013, 10 years ago, so it seemed an appropriate time to review things now, in 2023 especially after the last 3 somewhat grim years.

What next? – As you may have seen or heard, we will be swapping our home in Edinburgh for one in Torridon, quite a change and both exciting and slightly daunting. After a few trips north during the last few years, the idea that we could make such a big step started to take shape. After we were both fortunate enough to retire from our day jobs, we decided to test winter living in the Highlands with a six week stay on the shores of Loch Broom, near Ullapool in Jan/Feb 2022. Far from being put off, we revelled in the winter landscape and the wild weather and the decision was made.

We have a sort of photographic travelogue record of our time in the North-west, an image of which you can see above – web gallery here https://www.henni.photo/Loch-Broom-and-beyond/

It took a bit of searching and a couple of failed attempts before we secured our own wee bit of paradise. We’ve signed up with Skye-based RHouse and have made the first steps towards building a house in Annat, Torridon. This will no doubt be a strand of future blogs.

More Highlands and Islands images in our website gallery.

The change of location and lifestyle will inevitably impact our photography as the photos from our time in Loch Broom demonstrates. We won’t be moving for 18 months or so and then will continue to visit Edinburgh regularly so expect a mix of styles and subjects in future. We will continue to be online using the following –

Our 2017 Selection of #Edinburgh #Festival #Photography

A selection of some of the images we took during the Edinburgh Festivities. As ever, lots going on, too much to try and see, random things happening on the street and plenty of photographic scenes to capture.

First up, the official Edinburgh International Festival opening, celebrating 70 years of the Festival and Fringe, including ‘Bloom’.

And some performers from The Wedding Reception out in Princes Street Gardens, looking the part as Bride, Groom, Mother of the Bride and embarrassing Father of the Bride.

And finally, here’s where you can currently see our prints on display.

henni.photo Prints and Etchings at 3 locations

Currently, our prints and etchings are on display at McDonald-Greene Jewellers in Bruntsfield,  at Dundas Street Framers and in the Art Collective at 139 Princes Street.  All work is for sale and ready to take away, but please feel free just to go and have a look and tell us what you think. Nothing beats seeing a print on the wall – you get a much better idea of it than on a screen.

An Overdue Update #Edinburgh #Photography

There’s a common theme amongst bloggers where they talk about a lack of recent posts and being busy with things, so here’s our contribution to this without the long discussion about it.

Firstly, here are a few recent images, which would have been in the now non-existent posts from the past wee while.

And a reminder of the Retina International Photography Festival 2017, now in the final weeks so a last chance to see the Royal Photographic Society exhibition at the Drill Hall which finishes tomorrow and the Emerging Talent and Shutter Hub exhibitions, both at Ocean terminal and which finish on Sunday 30th.

It’s probably time for a wee round up, as we’ve had a busy 2016 that continues into 2017.

Retina Scottish International Photography Festival June – July 2017

Having been part of the Retina Scottish International Festival 2016, it is good to see the plans for this year’s Festival, which will run from the 17h of June to the 30th July. Lynn has recently joined the Retina Team as a board member and Paul is working as one of the volunteers.

The Festival 2017 line-up is now out, including details of the Photomarathon and Portfolio Reviews. All funds raised contribute to keeping the Festival running and making sure that access to the exhibitions remains free. You can also donate online or at each of the exhibitions.

This is filming for the new Avengers Infinity War film. They were doing the drone and 3D shooting with some of the old town buildings lit up, red at this point. Interesting the difference it makes.

On the Campus, Heriot-Watt University, Riccarton, Edinburgh.

A selection of images taken around the Heriot-Watt Campus, taken on a #Fujifilm #XPRO-2 or #XE-2.

The campus is on the site of the old Riccarton estate, so has some good mature trees, interesting paths and is worth exploring.

Firstly, a mix of some of the paths.
