Suggestions for photo locations - Aberdeen area

[Naso Grande]

Afternoon folks,

Looking for somewhere to take photographs of the car in/around the Aberdeen area. Somewhere that's dramatic/industrial but not an industrial estate would be ideal.

Cheers,
Graeme

Footdee or beside the Torry Battery with the backdrop of the harbour?

Indeed

I was there today as it happens [Torry Battery], taking pics of the old star destroyer before I move her on.

The underpass under Union St where the "Tunnels Nightclub is. Entry is only from the Green, Quiet on a Sunday.

Not sure if you can get in the harbour anymore, but there used to be a cracking parking spot just down from the silver darling. looks over the entire harbour. Ditto with any of the old dry docks, usually a lot of metal in there. The south side lighthouse/battery is a good call.

Arches on riverside drive?
Top of the Slug road as you crest the hill on a clear day excellent views of grampian, fairly nice views locally.
Stonehaven promenade.

Despite the volume of industry here there isn't that many places.

Harbour gets my vote.

Adam Russel (on here) did a few pics for me last year with nice results.








Plenty more places but I liked these.

How about the turbines by Insch?

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll take a tour round them and see if anything fits what I'm looking for.

Oh wait, are you talking about the wind turbines up near Huntly? I thought you meant GT's.
