Taken from a unique aerial perspective, it offers a panoramic view of Ballifeary, Inverness and Bona in Inverness-shire, Scotland. The image is oriented towards the northeast, showcasing the city's remarkable landmarks. In the foreground, we see an elegant bridge spanning over the majestic River Ness, its waters reflecting the surrounding buildings. The high street comes alive with activity as people go about their daily routines amidst charming shops and storefronts. Dominating this picturesque scene is none other than Inverness Castle—a symbol of strength and history—standing tall against the backdrop of rolling hills. The photographer responsible for capturing this momentous sight is Ernest Edmund Fresson—an accomplished artist known for his exceptional skills in aerial photography.

Adding to the allure of this photograph is Inverness Cathedral, standing proudly amidst its surroundings. Its towering spires reach towards the sky while exuding an air of tranquility amidst all the urban hustle below.

It allows us to appreciate how much has changed since 1940 while reminding us that some things remain timeless—the
