Hi, everyone:
Greyfriars Bobby:
Nightwatchman Constable John Gray acquired a stray Skye Terrier to serve as his companion on the evening tours. The two became inseparable until Gray's passing in 1858. For the following 14 years, Bobby refused to leave his masters grave site regardless of weather conditions. The public took notice of Bobby's devotion and cared for him plus built a shelter on site.
Monument at Greyfriars Kirkyard:
There is a small bronze stature of Bobby by William Brodie across the pub which was erected in 1872.

My pleasure James and glad you enjoy them.
Not long ago, I took all travel photographs with Fuji af lenses since was concerned of messing them up with manual focus. Time have changed and now rarely use af plus wanted the opportunity to share with the forum.
