OriginalAlfred Buckham's c. 1920 "Aerial View of Edinburgh".
Reason
A stunning photo by a daredevil pilot. Gives a stunning overview of Edinburgh in 1920 which, because it's Edinburgh, is still pretty darn accurate to this day. Bit of mist around Arthur's Seat, which is typical enough. This is facing roughly east.
