Point Law
The photograph looks South-East to Point Law from Provost Matthews' Quay.

In direct line of sight is a mixed fleet of sail boats and steam drifters. They sit moored in the tidal area of the harbour.

The hills between Old South Breakwater and Torry Harbour stretch hazily in the background.

Two of the visible sailing boats are registered with Inverness and Aberdeen. They are thought to have been the White Rose (A149) and the Unity (INS450).

Both of these vessels were in Scotland at the same time for a period of about ten years. In accordance with this, it is likely the photograph was taken between 1903-1913.
