Edinburgh through eyes of international students

THEY are pictures which reveal the spectacular, daring and diverse nature of our city, all captured through the lens of those not from the Capital but who have grown to love it and call it home.

Andrei Dumitriu's picture of St Andrew Square won the overall first prize

International students from Edinburgh University took part in the institution’s sixth annual photograph competition, and the winners have just been announced.

All the winning images now feature in the 2015 university calendar, while those who took them have pocketed cash prizes for their efforts.

Each picture offers a unique insight into life in Edinburgh, the pictures having been snapped in accordance with the theme “Diverse Edinburgh”.

Andrei Dumitriu was the £100 first-prize winner, while Natalie Pilakouta got £50 as Principal Sir Timothy O’Shea’s personal favourite.
