This remarkable photograph was taken by Pilot A Koch, from a Guinea Airways aeroplane, when flying over the Ramu region, main land of New Guinea. Near at hand, is the Ramu River, winding between hills and patches of jungle. In the distance is cloud-capped Manam lsland, between Wewak and Madang. It is 20 miles from the river to the coast, and 15 miles from the coast to Mt. Manam.
