  And this is the Repulse.

  Antoine R Andy Brill Thanks Antoine R and AndyBrii!

• andy a said:

  The other ships are "D"-class cruisers; HMSs Dragon, Dauntless, Danae and Delhi formed part of the fleet. The fourth ship in line is Dragon - the structure giving her a boxy bridge was infact a canvas hangar as she was being used experimentally to carry an aircraft here. This image on Wikipedia shows this structure.

  From North Head with a zoom lens, or a low-flying biplane. Mr Hood seemed to like being high up.
