A brief bank of dark rain cloud passing over Edinburgh on an otherwise nice summer day in 2011. I’ve previously posted about Edinburgh Castle on the proper blog.
Wikipedia says: Edinburgh Castle is a fortress which dominates the skyline of the city of Edinburgh, Scotland, from its position atop the volcanic Castle Rock. Human habitation of the site is dated back as far as the 9th century BC. There has been a royal castle here since at least the reign of David I in the 12th century, and the site continued to be a royal residence until the Union of the Crowns in 1603. From the 15th century the castle’s residential role declined, and by the 17th century its principal role was as a military base with a large garrison. As one of the most important fortresses in the Kingdom of Scotland, Edinburgh Castle was involved in many historical conflicts, from the Wars of Scottish Independence in the 14th century, up to the Jacobite Rising of 1745, and has been besieged, both successfully and unsuccessfully, on several occasions. Although formally owned by the Ministry of Defence, most of the castle is now in the care of Historic Scotland, and it is Scotland’s most-visited paid tourist attraction. The garrison left in the 1920s, but there is still a military presence at the castle, largely ceremonial and administrative, and including a number of regimental museums. As the backdrop to the annual Edinburgh Military Tattoo it has become a recognisable symbol of Edinburgh and of Scotland.

At least, Loch an Ruathair and mountains (Ben Griam Beg?) between Kinbrace and Forsinard in the Flow Country.
I'm not sure what the rows of upright railway sleepers were for. Perhaps part of long decayed deer fences? They had suffered some long distant fire damage -- perhaps they were even fire breaks for the railway, which is in the near distance.
Just last week a steam train set fire to the area again, damaging the bird reserve.
