In pictures: Your Pictures 1 - 8 August

		Introducing Max Blinkhorn This week's picture gallery has been edited by our inaugural guest editor, Max Blinkhorn. Max lives in Loanhead, Midlothian, and says he has been taking photographs "forever". He enjoys shooting performance and recording art installations, but like many photographers, he hates having his own picture taken, he says. Max recently organised an exhibition for fellow Edinburgh photographers at the Radisson SAS Hotel.
