I think this is HMAS Vendetta (see my comment here: www.flickr.com/photos/anmm_thecommons/12625484163/ ).
Antoine R said:
I was wrong. The ship is surely HMAS Anzac (the second funnel isn't seen). And this photo is "mirrored" (look at the steam pipes).

It was November 24, 1930 and the ship in the background is HMAS Canberra, which will sink Torrens as target practice [i.e., she is not being scuttled].

I am looking for shots fo the HMAS Sydney (and other old naval vessels) after being shown this shot... My great grandfather is onboard, I am amazed at the size of ship but also the quality of photography back then!
