An educated guess - that is the Orient Line LUSITANIA bottom right. Compare the bow, anchor, rigging, davitts, and figurehead with -

beachcomber australia Good point re LUSITANIA, a bit difficult to tell. Although on closer inspection it appears to be washing day on deck there..? We LOVED the Petty's Hotel montage! The Fawlty Towers music was a nice touch :) As you mention, it must have been a favourite with photographers, who also seemed to loved capturing it from the same corner!

This photo was taken after 1883. On the Saturday night of 12th Nov 1883, there was a fire between Lower George St & Pitt St just south of Queens Wharf, next to the Commissariat Stores. The fire destroyed the old 1820s counting house of Berry & Wollstonecraft, which was next south to Mary Reibey's house. In the 1870s Lower George St had become an enclave of Chinese merchants. In the picture, above, John Cowper has put a box around the PS Brighton. In the top left hand corner in that box, you can see the remains of the wall of Berry & Wollstonecraft's counting house, here in this picture was occupied by Sun Kum On Importer. The story is on the previous page. l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/...

Has anyone else noticed that the 'Favorites' star isn't working? -

FrigateCol Favourites star working for me - Flickr is still very glitchy, and I particularly miss the Preview Comment button.
The original size of this is ENORMOUS, and THETIS is written on the bow. I thought it might have been the CAPTAIN COOK (1), the Pilot Steamer. -

Aha! Snap! The same image at State Records NSW (4481_a026_000478). Theirs might well be the original glass plate negative.

The State Records NSW blurb - "The pilot steamer Thetis, built in 1868 for the New South Wales Department of Public Works. In 1871 the Thetis was placed in temporary service as Sydney's Pilot Steamer until 1877."
The blurbs for this particular Series at SRNSW are notoriously inaccurate, so let's see if we can improve on the history of this wonderful ship ... -
