. The Dalkeith park war memorial Midlothian. Photographed at Dalkeith , Midlothian, Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. The photograph was taken on 28 August 2013. This editorial stock image documents the subject as it appeared at that time, preserving a clear record of the place, its appearance and the everyday details surrounding it. The scene is closely associated with Dalkeith, park, war, memorial, Midlothian, remembrance, War Memorial, WWI, Edinburgh and names, adding specific subject detail and useful search context without losing the documentary focus on the main subject. The photograph has direct relevance to remembrance, commemoration, war memorials, civic ceremony and the public spaces used to remember military service and loss. It can support editorial features about Remembrance Sunday, Armistice commemorations, poppies, cenotaphs, wreath laying, local military history, veterans and civic participation. Inscriptions, floral tributes, flags, stonework, surrounding streets and temporary commemorative displays can provide important documentary detail for historical and news use. A dated image of a memorial is especially valuable because ceremonies, wreaths, signage and the surrounding public realm change from year to year. Search themes include remembrance, cenotaphs, war memorials, poppies, veterans, civic ceremony, military history, Armistice and public commemoration. Temporary wreaths, poppies and ceremonial displays can make one year's view materially different from another, increasing the archive value of the photograph. The combination of a named subject, precise location and capture date gives the image particular value to editors who need a real, identifiable place rather than a generic illustrative photograph. It can be used in newspapers, magazines, books, websites, documentaries, heritage projects and retrospective features where geographical accuracy and period detail matter.
