    According to this Twitter conversation, it's on Bere Island - twitter.com/cork1914to1924/status/529669140043554816 Streeview - goo.gl/maps/dErTjoxweqJ2 - see building on left, which was the island school according to Twitter. Edit - or perhaps a bit further back - goo.gl/maps/o7wGxLPZdqG2

    The boundary stones look new? The pavilion had been glazed in by the time Fergus O Connor got there. catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000290806 Your "bracing Atlantic air" must have got to them.

    From the Irish Examiner on Friday, 17 June 1904 (the day after the original Bloomsday!)
    BERE ISLAND ATHLETIC SPORTS The Bere Island Athletic Sports were quite up to the usual standard, which is saying a good deal. These events are looked forward to by a large section of the people of Bearehaven, and are always most successful and liberally patronised. ... The sports were held in the Admiralty Recreation Grounds, which are beautifully situated and splendidly laid out for the special purpose of affording a proper ground for such events. The whole place is well adapted and equipped for recreation purposes. ... The R.F., twin-screw launch "Miner", under the capable command of Qr.-Sergt. Hawken, R.E., was at the service of those who wished to avail of the opportunity of being comfortably conveyed from Castletown to Laurence Cove.

    I have an old/admiralty map of Bere Island somewhere. But as far as I know the recreation grounds were on the isthmus at Lawrence Cove. Around here. EDIT: Not sure how I overlooked it, but beachcomber australia had already linked the same spot. And included the National School in the angle (it does seem a likely candidate for the robust looking building on the far-left of the Lawrence Shot). Though the immediate ground-level topography doesn't seem to fully line-up - the OSI maps indicate a tidal influence close-by, so there could have been some "shifting" since. Whatever the location, I love the image itself. The ladies with the pram, and the spectators in naval uniform are all great. EDIT2: Looking at it again, I think beachcomber australia has it spot on. No lingering doubt on location in my view :)

    The camera is a Mitchell BNC on a Mitchell gear head on a spider dolly. That is a Mole-Richardson Arc lamp on the right with a yellow filter that was always added to counter the blue color of the arc itself. Sorry but I do not know the men in the picture for sure so I am guessing. I suspect the man in the dark jacket is Director Nicholas Ray while the man in the hat is the camera operator. Ray has just approved the framing and that is why the operator has his hands on the wheels so that he knows for sure the shot as approved. The man in the light jacket is probably the 1st Camera Assistant. The man with the dark hair is possibly the Director of Photography Joseph C. Brun for he is wearing a lanyard possibly holding the "badge of office," a contrast viewing filter. He normally would stand near the director so they could discuss the upcoming shot.
