October is almost over, so here’s a round up of your stunning Autumnal Edi pics

Autumn is both the best and worst time of the year.

On the one hand, Edinburgh becomes extremely cosy and aesthetic, with the medieval streets of Old Town designed for the Autumn gloom. It honestly doesn’t get more aesthetic than walking under the orange and yellow trees of The Meadows, Uplands Roast hot chocolate in hand.

On the flipside, the end of October marks midterm season, horrible weather, and the sun starting to set in the afternoon. It’s a depressing time.

However, it’s good to focus on the positives, which is why we asked you over on Instagram to send in your autumnal Edi pics.

They’re all absolutely stunning, and almost make the torrential rain and howling wind worth it:
