We are lucky to be home to some truly beautiful rivers and bodies of water here in Edinburgh so we asked our readers to submit their best photos to help us celebrate World River Day (September 24).
The River Forth and River Almond featured heavily in the photos that were shared with us as well as the beautiful birds that swim on their surfaces.
Click through this article to see some of our favourite photos.
