One of those staged viewpoints.

We are little different from the days of the Claude Glass - a tinted convex mirror through which the tourist or artist of the picturesque and sublime could see a composed and painterly image.

Now we have the wide angle lens, saturated color (after Fuji Velvia), and the LCD of the digital camera.

September 9 1513: in the low rolling hills of north Northumberland an invading Scottish army was defeated in the bloodiest ever encounter between England and Scotland. James IV, King of the Scots, nine of his Earls, fourteen Lords of Parliament, five Highland Chiefs and 10,000 men at arms fell between 4 and 6 o'clock that afternoon.

We'll hae nae mair lilting, at the yowe-milking,
Women and bairns are dowie and wae.
Sighing and moaning, on ilka green loaning,
The flowers of the forest are all wede away.

Jean Elliot "Flowers of the Forest" 1755
