THESE giant red poppies have sprung up alongside the M8 motorway to celebrate the 2012 Scottish Poppy Appeal.
Three poppies were painted on seven of the grass pyramids near Junction 3a. Created by ground staff from Murrayfield rugby stadium, they will be visible for the next two weeks.
Ian McGregor, chief executive of Poppyscotland, said: "When we introduced the poppies on the pyramids last year we received a tremendous response. Thousands of drivers saw them every day."
