    Possibly November 1912 at Bondi, according to this slightly tongue-in-cheek SMH report with illustrations - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/15376333 .

    [https://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Ah, just realised you'd already done the digging about Cleary. Yes, as I understand it, Hood was the one actually taking the photographs but the contract was under Cleary...It's a potential can of worms :)

    Andy Brill Thanks Andy - its fascinating isn't it? We love the changes in fashion too - can you imagine a day at the beach in a suit and dress? How would you ever get all the sand out?!
