beachcomber australia Kirribilli - ah ok that makes sense. It is always great to find a previously unidentified image of the Great White Fleet visit :)

Michael Eury That's a great thing to have, was it the 1908 visit or the visit in the 1920s?

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Nice one thanks QM! We're thinking though, if Cazneaux took the photos then that can't be him in the photo, although it might just be from his studio. Based on our experience with Hera Roberts, it looks like Hood may have done more work for the Home. I'd be interested to see what else pops up over time. If only they were digitised! :)
