Enjoying the sunshine in Princes Street Gardens

The weather earlier on Saturday was perfect for sunbathing, and many people enjoyed the sunshine there.

Many people took to the gardens to sunbathe or have a picnic, and there was a constant queue at the ice cream van parked by the Royal Scottish Academy.

Later in the day the weather took a turn for the worse as the haar rolled up from Leith enveloping the city centre.

The Governor of Edinburgh Castle, Major-General Alastair Bruce, showed the advancing mist from the castle.
