    At the time it was really difficult to take a good picture with a cat and a child. Great work.
  • tashapotamus said:
    What a great photo - cats are notoriously hard to take photos of. I wonder if the photographer at the time needed to take more than one?
  • Pixel Wrangler said:
    Hulda Helene Lundager (b.1888), was one of six daughters of the photographer Jens Hansen Lundager (1853-1930).

    Later in life (1913) Hulda was a music teacher, and then (1922) a nurse at General Hospital, East Street, Ipswich. [1]  

    There's another photo of Hulda with her mom in the State Library of Queensland’s collection on Flickr:

    After the battle. A scene on the Menin Road. Wounded waiting to be taken to the dressing stations.
    And -
    "A scene on the Menin Road near Hooge, looking towards Birr Cross Roads, during the battle on 20 September 1917. The wounded on the stretchers are waiting to be taken to the clearing stations; others able to walk are making their way along the road as far as possible. Identified are: Major (Maj) G A M Heydon MC, Regimental Medical Officer of the 8th Battalion (fifth from the left with his arm in a sling). To his left is Private W Bain and next to him is Private (Pte) 'Spud' Murphy. To Pte Murphy's left (wearing a pack) is 58 Lance Corporal (LCpl) Roy Arthur Findlay MM, all are members of the 1st Field Ambulance."
    "Shortly after the photograph was taken a shell landed in approximately the area where Maj Heydon and Pte Murphy had been standing. The shell killed most of the wounded on stretchers and LCpl Findlay was blown under the truck, shown lying on its side to the right."
