Stunning views from the Dean Gallery, Modern Two.

ModernTwo_ViewThere is plenty of beauty and wonder to look at outside the Scottish Gallery of Modern Art too.

Recently I met a client at the cafe in Modern Two, also know as the Dean Gallery in Edinburgh’s West End.

The walk from the city centre to the gallery of modern art is a favourite of mine, through the stunning Georgian architecture of the New Town and along the Water of Leith, it is a wonder. And all just 15 minutes from George Street.

But before you enter as you climb the grand steps outside Modern Two remember to turn around and take in this view, across the city to St Cuthbert’s Church. Can anyone tell me the name of the spire in the foreground?
