EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable 3D Rubislaw Quarry, located in Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Taken from an aerial perspective in 1961 by the National Collection of Aerial Photography (NCAP) under the Ministry of Defence (MOD), this image offers a unique glimpse into the fascinating history and landscape of this iconic quarry. The Hill of Rubislaw stands proudly as a testament to human ingenuity and determination. The quarry itself is an awe-inspiring sight, with its vast expanse carved out over centuries through sheer perseverance and hard work. It serves as a reminder of the immense effort that went into extracting granite from these grounds for construction purposes. However, what truly sets this photograph apart is the juxtaposition between nature's raw beauty and man-made residential housing surrounding the quarry. From above, one can witness how civilization has harmoniously integrated with nature's grandeur in this part of Scotland. As we gaze upon this image captured more than half a century ago, it evokes feelings of admiration for those who shaped this land while also reminding us to cherish our natural resources responsibly. This print not only documents an important historical site but also invites contemplation on humanity's relationship with our environment
