The classic shot of this amazing bridge.
Train above Queensferry
This bridge is great to shoot from both North and South Queensferry, and is only a short drive away from the centre of Edinburgh.  From these locations, you can opt to shoot just this bridge, or include the other two bridges in a wide angled shot.

The Forth Rail Bridge from North Queensferry
Probably one of my favourite things to photograph, The forth bridges. This only showing the two road bridges. Old and new. The Rail Bridge (my favourite) out of frame just behind me at this point.
