What fun! To get that height and distance from the NEW lighthouse, the photo must have been taken from the OLD one. Looking west, Sydney Harbour in background. c.1883 See www.flickr.com/photos/state-records-nsw/3793505443/ and www.flickr.com/photos/state-records-nsw/3793505537/ More - www.lighthouse.net.au/lights/nsw/Macquarie/Macquarie.htm#...

All those knobs in top hats - I wonder if one of them is the architect James Barnet - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Barnet . Perhaps the fellow with the pale topper and big nose?

Isn't it a great photo! I think you're right about it being taken from the old lighthouse. I've replaced this with a larger version to see if we can see a bit more of that face you have pointed out...the shadows on the cheekbones look similar don't they?

Thanks, State Records NSW, the large version shows astonishing detail, but I can't make a match yet.

Second thoughts - I would say that is a definite match. Here is another portrait of him - www.sydneyarchitecture.com/ARCH/ARCH-Barnet.htm. I wonder who the others are? A Premier, various Ministers, hangers-on, and children. The photo-op for NSW pollies is nothing new!
