Edwin Morgan


Edwin Morgan, originally uploaded by Alex Boyd.

A few months ago we blogged a wonderful B&W from Alex Boyd of Scotland's first Maker, Edwin Morgan who sadly died on Thursday. Alex's great shot now graces Edwin Morgans Wikipedia page

In recognition of Edwin's wonderful poetry, and Alex's great photography, we have blogged another of Alex's - slightly cheeky - portraits of the first Scottish national poet: The Scots Makar.

""Wrinkles should merely indicate where smiles have been."
