Well done all!
‘GE image please’ rather than GM/GE was a subtle reference to historical imagery in GE, which is not accessible in GM.
I found this huge whale in an article about Ordnance Survey, Britain’s great mapping agency. They have to make hundreds of changes to the maps every day - new features appearing, old ones disappearing.
The answer: The Colonsay Whale is a 160m (525ft) long outline of a whale made of stones at Balnahard on the Isle of Colonsay. The project led by artist Julian Meredith invites people to fill in the rest of the shape with stones. OS has classified the art installation as a hill carving site and added it to its database.
