Inside the museum was not well lit, so I didn't get many shots. This is one of the few that came out.

A shot of the gun inside the museum. It's been restored by volunteers who worked on the equipment in wartime.

In my defense, if you look at the clock next to the gun, it's not yet one, even though the shot has been fired.

The Sergeant is responsible for the one o'clock gun. Here he is greeting some visitors who get to go inside the fence for the firing.

People started to gather around 12:45 to watch the one o'clock gun fire. It was lightly raining, but that didn't seem to stop anyone.

Looking back across the top level toward St. Margaret's chapel. The cannon banks are to my right and curve around behind me.

The lighting changed very quickly while we were at the castle, so I have a lot of the "same" shots that are different.
