Then and now: Modern day Aberdeen merges into the 1960s in stunning photo montage

Stepping back a few decades, one of the most startling things about Aberdeen’s Rosemount Place is the lack of change in the area.

And there’s no better way to highlight this than through our then and now pictures.

The Press and Journal’s picture editor David Bradley, created this fascinating montage on Photoshop by taking a 1960s photo of the Aberdeen street and blending another, taken last week from the exact same spot, into it.

Keep your eyes peeled for more photo montages of well known spots in Aberdeen over the next few days as our picture editor gets to work on a variety of locations around the city.

The original capture is available from Photoshop Scotland.
