"Photograph taken by Herman Whitaker from a seaplane during World War One. The image shows a ship approximately 5000 feet below the plane. Although the sea appears calm, there was a strong 60 mile wind making photography difficult. Image number 8068, notes suggest potential danger in capturing the shot."
