EDITORS COMMENTS
Nestled in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, lies the picturesque village of Crathie, home to the beautiful Kirk of Crathie. This historic church, with its distinctive red sandstone walls and slate roof, has been a place of worship since the 13th century. The churchyard, filled with ancient gravestones, tells the stories of generations of local families. The Kirk of Crathie is not only a place of spiritual significance for the community but also holds a special connection to the British monarchy. Queen Victoria and Prince Albert frequently visited Balmoral Castle, located just a few miles away, and the royal family continues to attend services at the Kirk during their annual summer stay. This photograph, taken in the soft, golden light of a Scottish autumn day, captures the serene beauty of the Kirk and its surroundings. The church stands proudly against the backdrop of the rolling hills and trees, their leaves turning shades of red, orange, and gold. The tranquility of the scene is only broken by the gentle sound of the babbling Burn of Crathes, which flows nearby. The Kirk of Crathie is more than just a place of worship; it is a symbol of history, tradition, and the natural beauty of Scotland. This photograph is a testament to the enduring charm of this humble church and the breathtaking landscape that surrounds it.
