Description: Sergeant Jamie Shannon of the 105 Regiment Royal Artillery stands in the Middle Ward, Edinburgh Castle. As District Gunner, he has just supervised the firing of the One O'Clock gun, which points east over the Mills Mount Battery wall. The rest of the gunners are formed up behind the gun, to the right. To the left is the stairway down to the Western Defences, and the side of the cart shed (now the cafe).
