Um, okay. Thanks for sharing, but it doesn't add anything. Tpacw (talk) 19:44, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Suggest replacement for lead image
The lead image is very pretty but of fairly low resolution and it is hard to judge scale. The suggested replacement is newer, hi-res, good quality showing the entire monument in context and scale. Saffron Blaze (talk) 10:30, 6 March 2012 (UTC)


 * The current image isn't very bright, although great composition. If you are after something to judge the scale you'll have to get a photo from the Royal Mile area facing North.NotMiserable (talk) 18:07, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
 * By scale I meant having something to reference like the people walking by. Is it the replacement image you say is not very bright? Saffron Blaze (talk) 18:39, 6 March 2012 (UTC)


 * I agree Saffron Blaze I think the replacement is better as the perspective is less distorted. I also think the second image on the page is awful - an interesting angle but useless for anyone not familiar with the building. A close up of the statue would be preferable, or detail of the stonework/statues on the upper levels. Thanks, Jonathan Oldenbuck (talk) 17:48, 7 March 2012 (UTC)


 * As soon as there´s good weather and few people around the monument, I´ll try to get better images.

In the meanwhile I have a closeup of the Scott statue inside the monument. --Stefan2901 (talk) 10:03, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
