A biplane over Edinburgh, 1920
"Monotony is the awful reward of the careful."
Mr Buckham is somewhat obscure to the Internet; at least, not eminent enough to have yet earned his own Wikipedia page. However, I very much hope it's the Alfred George Buckham I provided the link for above: a British naval aviator during World War I, and an impressive black-and-white photographer of planes and landscapes. That stunning aerial photograph high above the centre of Edinburgh in 1920 is one of his. There is a lot more worth checking out on the linked website devoted to him.
While rashness, over-hastiness, and silly gambling are never good things,.... neither are timorousness and excess of caution - in FPL, or more generally in Life.
