Do not delete this image. This is a PNG version (this shrinks the file size by half with no loss of information) of the original Library of Congress scan of Image:Edward Walsh - Queenstown, Upper Canada on the Niagara (a.k.a. Queenston, Ontario).jpg. It is just over the present limit for thumbnailing of PNGs; however, it can be downloaded, and documenting your restoration work requires uploading the original version you worked from, and so this is a necessary file.
