Shot using 3 SB-800 strobes. I place two on stands near the flower pots on both sides of the pool. The third strobe was hand held by my assistant, he is directing the strobe into the pool from the right side.
This is a Kingsway postcard published by W.H. Smith & sons and dates from about 1905. The view is looking east and downstream from London Bridge and the Belle steamer "Southwold Belle" is leaving its berth at Fresh Wharf which is just out of sight to the left in front of Adelaide Buildings. She was used primarily on the Great Yarmouth route, she certainly appears to be packed with passengers. In 1913 she was sold to an operator in Cherbourg and at the outbreak of the first world war she was commandeered by the French Navy and used in the Mediterranean as a troop and supply ship. After the war she was sold to an operator in Genoa where she was broken up in 1925.
Best viewed with the zoom feature.
It looked like it would have been more fun if they just batted around a half-dozen balls instead of just one.
Thank you Joe (Wooffest) for the pic - i think this was from a year ago... we'll see what this year entails! ;)
