This canal was created in the seventeenth century to supply drinking water to the Fukagawa area. In Hiroshige's time a regular passenger-boat service emerged as a pleasant shortcut for Edo travelers heading northeast. This was the only towboat canal in Edo, and hence it enjoyed some distinction. Although the canal followed an absolutely straight line, Hiroshige depicted it with artistic license. The dramatic curves lend a sense of Western perspective seldom encountered in the series.

Is this the recently extinct bird?

Your math is off. It would take 8.5 million people donating $5 a month, to equal the 510 million a year from Google.

My math (please correct me if I am wrong):

$510 million / 1 year

$ X / 1 month?

$510 million / 12 months = $42.5 million / 1 month 

$42.5 million / $5 per person a month = 8.5 million people a month

Okay but that headline looks like it was written by big oil

Did someone just say “weaboo”?

A “sticky wicket”.

Is there an earlier example of what looks like a candid photo?

In other words, is this novel for the time?
