EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial shot captures the timeless beauty of Devizes Castle, a Victorian folly nestled on the historic motte of its predecessor in Wiltshire. Damian Grady's expert lens transports us back to 2015, offering a unique perspective on this remarkable architectural gem. Devizes Castle stands as a testament to the creativity and imagination of its builders, who sought to recreate the grandeur and charm of medieval castles within a more modern context. The result is an enchanting fusion of old and new, where Gothic-inspired towers rise majestically from lush green surroundings. The castle's strategic location atop a motte and bailey earthwork adds an air of mystery and intrigue. As we gaze upon this print, our eyes are drawn to the intricate details that adorn every corner: ornate turrets, delicate stonework, and expansive courtyards that once bustled with life. Grady's composition allows us to appreciate not only the architectural prowess behind Devizes Castle but also its harmonious integration into nature. From above, we witness how it effortlessly blends into its surroundings while commanding attention with its imposing presence. As we delve deeper into this photograph, we are transported back in time - imagining knights clashing swords within these walls or noble ladies promenading through manicured gardens. It serves as a reminder that history lives on through these structures; they become windows into bygone eras for all those fortunate enough to behold them. Damian Grady has masterfully captured both the grandeur
