A sweeping arc in Edinburgh’s West End, Melville Crescent was designed in the 1850s by John Tait as part of the expansion of the New Town’s Second Phase. Acting as a key junction in the grand grid of the West End, the crescent’s geometry forms a striking contrast to the orthogonal plans of earlier New Town streets.
It takes its name from Robert Dundas, 2nd Viscount Melville, whose statue stands at its centre – sculpted by David Watson Stevenson and erected in 1886. The buildings are classical in style, with their ashlar façades, basement levels, cast-iron balconies, and regimented window spacing typical of the Victorian interpretation of the Georgian ideal.
Today, Melville Crescent offers not only a fine architectural ensemble but also a moment of calm amidst the bustle of the West End — where curve meets corner in the city’s most elegant embrace.

🇫🇷 Un arc majestueux dans le West End d’Édimbourg, Melville Crescent fut conçu dans les années 1850 par John Tait dans le cadre de l’extension du deuxième développement de la New Town. Cette courbe rompt délibérément avec la rigidité orthogonale des premières rues de la ville nouvelle.
Le croissant porte le nom de Robert Dundas, 2e vicomte Melville, dont la statue trône au centre — une œuvre de David Watson Stevenson érigée en 1886. Les immeubles adoptent un style classique avec des façades en pierre de taille, des niveaux en sous-sol, des balcons en fer forgé et un alignement rigoureux des fenêtres — une interprétation victorienne de l’idéal géorgien.
Aujourd’hui, Melville Crescent est un havre de calme, où l’élégance architecturale épouse la courbe du paysage urbain.
No tenia pensat portar la càmera, però al decidir anar a l’hotel Florida vaig canviar d’opinió ràpidament, feia molt temps que ens venia de gust fer una nit aquí i, ja que venia, vaig dedicar una estona a fer alguna foto. Va ser una llàstima el temps que ens va fer, 30 minuts després d’arribar una boira ho tapava tot i no es veia res, ja fins a la nit, no vam tenir una estona amb una mica de visibilitat. L’endemà al matí tot i llevar-me per la sortida de sol, tampoc es va veure el sol i vam tenir un dia gris i boirós.
Sigui com sigui vaig aconseguir alguna foto interessant. Aquí us poso una panoràmica d’una part de la ciutat amb la torre Agbar a un costat, la Sagrada família al centre i les torres bessones de Barcelona a la dreta de la foto. Una cosa a destacar també és el rang lumínic de la imatge i que no ho sembla, ja que és una imatge molt fosca amb “poca llum” i, per tant, calia posar un temps d’exposició llarg, però compte amb la façana de la Sagrada Família, que té uns focus superpotents i és molt fàcil que surti cremada i he hagut de baixar molt la lluminositat d’aquesta zona.
A nivell d’edició, també, el més destacat ha sigut mirar de treure la bruma, per això, he aplicat bastant “Borrar Neblina” i contrast. També amb Photoshop vaig eliminar uns focus molt potents ( no sé si un camp de futbol o alguna cosa així, que distreien massa ).

The main staircase that leads you into to the Ovolo Nishi Building in the Acton Precinct in Canberra. It has an emphasis on expressed materials, with lightly finished timbers and concrete that form the walls and surfaces. To embrace the sustainability theme of the building the stairs and walls are all made out of reclaimed timbers. You can see how each step is layered timber? I personally love how the timbers still have the original inks and stamps from their previous lives marked into them. On one piece of wood I saw a big boot print on it and it’s great to see little imperfections like this!!!
