EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the excitement and grandeur of the Royal Scottish Volunteer Review in Edinburgh, Scotland, held on 18th September, 1905. Thousands of spectators gathered on St. Anthony's Brae and the Haggis Knowe to witness the military parade, an annual event that showcased the strength and readiness of the Scottish Volunteer Force. The volunteers, proudly dressed in their uniforms, marched in formation, displaying their discipline and commitment to their regiments. The scene is filled with a sense of national pride and camaraderie, as families and friends cheer and clap, some even waving Scottish flags. The men in the crowd wear kilts and tam o'shanters, adding to the distinctly Scottish atmosphere. The women and children, dressed in their Sunday best, look on with a mix of awe and excitement. The review took place on the historic Royal Mile, with Edinburgh Castle looming in the background, adding to the sense of tradition and history. The event was an important part of Scottish culture and identity, bringing together the community to celebrate their military heritage and the strength of their nation. This photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and the rich history of Scotland. The scene is timeless, with the crowd's enthusiasm and the volunteers' determination remaining as relevant today as they were over a century ago.
