  Noteworthy details: right-hand drive; acetylene headlights; smooth tread tires, decorative striping and clear coats of varnish on hand crank and chassis.

• Arden said:

  technogeo-- Thanks for the details about this car and for pointing out the reflection of the photographer in the headlights. We are always interested in pictures of photographers at work, and this is an unusual one!

  3 modes of transportation: walking, horse & carriage and the new fangled horseless carriage ;) My favorite part of the pic is the carriage & driver and his interaction with Mr. Bain, his glance at the spectacle on the street that was no doubt caused by the car and photographer. A great illustration of the rapid change taking place at the time. Fascinating.

  good shot!

  [https://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Good work there! And a good educated guess about the Wollondilly and Cox rivers. The Hawkesbury tends to have sand edges, not pebbles or rocks as seen here.

  [https://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] WooHoo! That must be very close.

• beachcomber australia said:

  Hi-res map showing all the submerged settlements and old roads - might be of use ...

  [https://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Good find - the photos are spookily similar in composition. Kerry has dismantled that eye-catching crucifix.

  Cool ...well preserved history :))

• Stephanie Manuel Stuckey said:

  You can see the shadow of the photographer and his camera.

• mothernature photography said:

  At least the presence of the photographer exists in shadow, quite clearly, with camera and tripod. Excellent image to share!

  Great vintage shot.
