Acrylic Blox : Isle of Man coast, and gateway to Highlands
Mounted Prints from Mary Evans Picture Library
Isle of Man coast, and gateway to Highlands
A panoramic view of the coast of the Isle of Man photographed from Cumbria (Cumberland) at a point over 40 miles away, which was taken by means of infra-red plate and filter and a long-focus lens - the Irish Sea given the appearance of a great lake! The photograph was taken from a point south-west of Wast Water, Cumbria. The greater part of the eastern coast of the Isle of Man is shown, from a point near Ramsey to the low-lying land in the southerly part of the island. At the bottom is another infra-red photograph of the gateway to the Highlands (Rob Roy country), taken from the Wallace Monument at Stirling, Scotland. Date: 1932

EDITORS COMMENTS
This panoramic view of the Isle of Man's eastern coastline, as seen from Cumbria (then known as Cumberland) in 1932, is an intriguing snapshot of the past. The photograph, taken using infra-red plate and filter and a long-focus lens, transforms the Irish Sea into a serene, mirror-like lake. The vantage point for this remarkable image was south-west of Wast Water in Cumbria, which allowed for an expansive view of the Isle of Man, from a point near Ramsey to the low-lying land in the southern part of the island. The second image, also taken in 1932, showcases the gateway to the Highlands, or Rob Roy country, as seen from the Wallace Monument at Stirling, Scotland. This photograph, too, was captured using infra-red technology, adding an otherworldly quality to the landscape. The 1930s were an era of innovation in photography, and this pair of images, with their unique perspectives and use of infrared technology, offer a fascinating glimpse into the past. These historical photographs, preserved by Mary Evans Prints Online, serve as a reminder of the power of technology to transform our perception of the world around us.
