beachcomber australia I think we'll allow for a different colour pallet :)

Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons The November 1908 date on John Cowper's version means the photo was taken in 1907/8. There is a fair amount of articles in Trove about the Sly brothers and their boat, which must have been the first surf rescue rowboat, like the ones which still race but rarely rescue anyone.

beachcomber australia It seems that the Sly brothers were appointed by Manly Council in 1903 (as John said - shortly after daylight bathing was allowed there). So I guess the image could be anytime after that. I agree with John that it is probably a year or two after these activities started and began to gain some notoriety.

Compare this with an almost identical view in the Phillips collection here: www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/3129859636/ and note that this Tyrrell Collection view by King is taken later.

trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/71384207/5335401 - the Australian Town & Country Journal, 20th October, 1900...similar view here (see pic on 3rd page of link)...the T&CJ pic looks to be a few years later than the Henry King PHM pic...I suspect the T&CJ artist might have added a few pine trees for aesthetic purposes...
