........the title is the inscription and royal motto that appears over the entrance to Edinburgh Castle, which roughly translated means 'no one messes with me and gets away with it'! lol! ...and I doubt they would as the gateway is guarded by the intrepid Robert the Bruce and William Wallace - you can see the statues either side of the door. If you are interested in reading more about Edinburgh and the castle, check the link. :)

Where are the Guards ? I thought all Castles had guards. Very nice night time shot. Very clear. Oh wait, I see a way to get in. Thanks for casing the joint for me.

I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

WHAT IS MAN WITHOUT THE BEASTS? If all the beasts were gone, man would die from a great loneliness of the spirit. For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man. All things are connected. ~Chief Seattle VISIT MY GALLERY
That's my motto........they stole it. Well maybe they had it first but it's still mine. LOL Great job Patti, well done. When I take pictures at night all I get is dark. :-)

If you have some minutes why don't you come visiting my gallery ?
Wonderful nightime shot Patti ... well exposed and extremely clear. With all there is to see in the Castle detail I find I'm fascinated with the two reflections from those torches upon the brickyard ... go figure. LOL

Just an old "Grampa" who still has a Kodak "Box" camera kicking around the attic ... learning and enjoying the wonders of modern digital photography.
An outstanding night shot, my dear. Really like the capture of the flames of the torches.

Right now, I'm once again in the middle of a move that won't be completed for 2 weeks, once I get that done, I'll post again. I will still comment on yours. Keep smiling in the mean time. ;-)

Great capture Patti, overpowering, and stunning image. I think if you would be locked up in the dungeon here, there would be no chance of an escape !! what a thick walls they had back then !

Great image Patti, I love the way you framed the castle, with the beautiful lights! I've been in the castle too, and it was marvelous, and we were lucky to be there during the festival, with al the artists on the streets, and the royal mile! Fantastic Shot!

What a wonderful capture, I am sitting here waiting for the massed bands to appear out the darkness. I love Edinburgh castle and this has to go in my fave pics of the castle. I promise myself every year I will attend the tattoo and 30 years on still not been. This amazing picture so makes me think of the lone piper. Thanks for sharing this
