A cropped, and reversed version of this photo ran in the Portland Sunday Oregonian of July 23, 1916 with the caption: " Sir George A. D. Dunbar, who has just married Sophie Kennedy, an American girl, is an officer in the Royal Highlanders. Prior to obtaining his commission in the Black Watch, he was in South Africa and at the outbreak of the war enlisted in the Natal Carbineers who were mobilized to quell the rebellion and later took part in the conquest of German Southwest Africa." oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1916-07-23/ed-1/se...

Nice photo of a Community well protected from a storm near the Sea. ( John ) USA

The outline of the Macquarie Lighthouse looks like the second one, ie post 1883. As it looks now - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Watsons_bay,_New_South_Wales_2...

Thanks, beachcomberaustralia, well spotted!

wow, nice pic. Many Thanks to flickr

I doubt whether this is a durbar or a religious procession as the wagon seems to have a religious mark (the vaishnavite mark of namam, the chakra and the chanka) on the front side, just behind the elephants. But considering the building in the picture to be of north Indian type, it's quite surprising to see the religious mark quite prevalent in south India on the wagon. Also quite visible in the photo are the white caps of British who are watching the procession from the stand. A really precious photograph indeed.

I agree with techofreak, we should perhaps look at Hyderabad state as the mark is definitely the same.

This is more likely a photograph from Delhi Durbar in 1903 (although it is put as taken in 1910). The carriage is of Mahraja of Rewa as seen here on Wikipedia. More details avaiable in this wikipedia article.
