Two men at the Govett's Leap lookout in the Blue Mountains, 1913-1929

    [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Yes it is indeed! Thank you quasymody. It is certainly one of my fave places. Hehe, penal colony :P
  • Mich said:
    I think that is Evans Lookout, not Govett Leap Lookout.
  • marhleet said:
    yep, Evan's, not Govett's
  • marhleet said:
    I google searched both names and looked at the images. G has a long Y valley with a waterfall
  • covid convict said:
    Definitely Govett's Leap Lookout or fairly close to it...you get a different view from Evans Lookout...

    When I used to go hiking in this part of the world I didn't own a camera, so I don't have a single photo to show for all those wonderful days (and nights) spent in the Grose Valley and tributaries...in all sorts of weather...most of the time wearing volleys or running shoes, carrying a backpack from army disposals containing an old wool jumper, a cheap plastic raincoat and a tent fly...and sometimes a sleeping bag.

    If anyone wants to pay for my airfare and a couple of night's accommodation I'm willing to make a trip to the area to establish the exact location...I have a camera these days, so I can take photos from the various locations...

    Play it again, Sam!

    beachcomber australia Ah, the most frequently repeated misquotation in cinema history [it's actually just "Play it, Sam"], but very apt for a Sam Hood photo! :) Judging by the objects on display, this photo was taken at the same time - emuseum.anmm.gov.au/code/emuseum.asp?id=25694
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia pellethepoet A fabulous piano. There's an interesting article on the saloon and interior of the vessel. This photograph was most certainly taken at the same time as the one of Ray Sterling. Judging by how young Ray Sterling looks in the other photograph, this photograph was probably taken between 1912 and 1916.

    OMG! It is a "player piano" according to that newspaper article - that's cheating, Sam! And evidently the dining table turned into a gramophone which played . Caruso singing La bohème.
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia It is cheating indeed! And he is sitting there making out like he can play piano ;) We think this photograph depicts the gramophone in the background, what do you think? Although, we're not quite sure how it was part of the centre table...
