EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the breathtaking beauty of Brough of Birsay, located in Orkney, Scotland. Taken in 2009, this aerial shot provides a unique perspective of this historic site and its iconic lighthouse. The photographer, David A Stevenson, skillfully captures the essence of this ancient monument. The Brough of Birsay is steeped in rich history and holds significant cultural importance. This image allows us to appreciate the rugged coastal landscape that surrounds it. The contrasting colors between the deep blue sea and lush greenery create a visually stunning composition. Standing tall amidst the wild waves crashing against its rocky shores is the renowned lighthouse. Its presence adds an element of intrigue to this already enchanting scene. Built by David A Stevenson himself, a member of the famous Stevenson family known for their contributions to Scottish lighthouses, it stands as a testament to their engineering prowess. This print not only serves as a visual delight but also evokes curiosity about the historical significance behind this remarkable location. It reminds us that Scotland's heritage is deeply rooted in these ancient structures that have withstood centuries. As we gaze upon this photograph from Royal Commission on The Ancient And Historical Monuments Of Scotland, we are transported back in time and reminded of our connection to our ancestors who once inhabited these lands.
