A new exhibition has launched showcasing street photographs of Craigmillar and its people taken in the 1980s and 1990s.
The photographs were taken by the late Sandra George (1957-2013), a respected community worker in the capital, who devoted much of her life to documenting people and places in working class communities around Edinburgh and beyond.
Taken between 1988 and 1994, Sandra George's Craigmillar collection provides a tantalising glimpse of a community that would soon be fragmented.

Much of the inter-war period housing that made up Craigmillar and Niddrie was demolished from the late 1990s onwards as the community sought to reinvent itself following years of economic decline and deprivation.
Subjects both young and old are featured in Sandra George's compelling images that are very much of the era they were taken.
The candid snaps, which have recently been digitised by arts and heritage organisation Craigmillar Now, are currently on show at the White House at 70 Niddrie Mains Road.
