Description
English: The Royal Navy during the Second World War
A Supermarine Walrus amphibious aircraft taxiing up to HMS WARSPITE after returning from a sweep in the Indian Ocean. A crew member is sitting on the top wing to the winch cable to the aircraft when it arrives alongside the battleship. An ILLUSTRIOUS class aircraft carrier can be seen moored in the background. Alongside her is another vessel, possibly a hospital ship, and HMS LUDLOW. A cruiser is moored aft of these vessels and a motor cutter is making its way from this group of ships towards the camera.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
