I believe I took this off of Genovesa Island, where the current was so strong and the swells so rough we had to move our snorkel location.
The snorkel and head sticking up belongs to Fausto, our guide, who had a rockin EOS 7D with a 100-400mm lens on it and a disdain for the rules when it came to a good shot.
Typical photographer.

Dalwhinnie War Memorial
Both Canmore and the Highland HER have the Dalwhinnie War Memorial located at NN 63780 83930 / NN 6378 8393 and Canmore says there is a second one at NN 63677 84846.
There is no war memorial there but there is a slightly raised piece of ground at the side of the road that possibly has a hollow at about NN 65786 83930. But behind it at NN 63795 83929 there is a large rock that seems to be on a concrete base but with no plaque on it.
I suspect that this must have been the original location of the war memorial and it was moved into the village perhaps when the old A9 was widened / re-aligned.
The current war memorial is at NN 63677 84818 which is nearer the corner than the position on Canmore.
The UKNIWM has approximately the correct current position.
