ample light short exposure time sans gunpowder I'm sure - very distinctive sharpness. This shot must have cost a mint.

I loathe huge glittery, blingy, pre-digested comments!

And I love the straight lines, curves, perspectives. light and shade, and the clothes and nonchalant stance of the man - reminds me of Fred Astaire.

Classic Art Deco.

@ vox9r - I would be interested to know why this cost a mint. Glass plate negatives etc.?

(Mariposa means butterfly in Spanish) That's a very dirty tugboat belching out all the filth on the MARIPOSA's port side. Same tug as this? -

beachcomber australia Hmmm, it's hard to tell. Although the tug seems to be tethered to different ends of the vessel, here at the stern and at the bow in the other image.

The white ship on the far right of the photo is either the Strathnaver or Strathaird.
