Edinburgh's Christmas market and castle have been lit up with festive cheer after the annual celebration got underway.

Drone images show the Princes Street market and fair in full swing after it opened on Friday (17).

Photographer Craig Duncan, 38, who attends the famous market at least twice a year with his two children, took the images.

He said: "The market brightens up the whole city with festive cheer - it's like another world.

"Once it gets going there's an even better vibe to the city than usual. It's a great atmosphere, and it's so vibrant.

"I was lucky to get the pictures - the weather up here usually makes it quite difficult."

He took the photos around 7pm on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

The market is in place until January 6.
