Inhabited Beauty

For photos of beautiful, still-inhabited locales! It can be a quick snapshot of your local town, a breathtaking pro photo of a city, or a pic of some fascinating piece of modern life.

The only real rule is that it must be an actively inhabited/used location (ie not ruins or natural locales). Otherwise, go wild. Anything that you find beautiful or interesting!

The wee house with the towers is The Violin Shop, owned (or was) by, and I quote, "Bob Beveridge (ex-CID)"

His many claims to fame include being local giude to Johnny Cash and Andy Williams when they came to visit the area, because Cash's ancestors came from Strathmiglo, just down the road. Apparently they all got smashed for days

Odd way to take the photo; if you turned round 180° there's a massive, beautiful medieval palace, a church, and a lovely thatched row house where Gav Broon's family used to stay
