A montage of the images showing the changes to the street in years gone by
As part of the Press and Journal’s then and now photography series, this image shows Aberdeen city centre in slightly different setting from today.
The original black and white, which was taken on May 20, 1947, shows Holburn Junction at a time when the tramlines were still intact.
To highlight the changes with the present day, The P&J’s picture editor David Bradley, created a fascinating montage on Photoshop by taking the image 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.
