The photographer is looking north along Wanchai Road to the junction with Flemin & Johnston Roads. The tram on the right is on the section of Johnston Road between Fleming & Stewart Roads. Upper right we can see a pawn shop sign, probably belonging to #91 Wanchai Road which is still a pawn shop - and still the same building that was standing when this photo was taken!

looking north from johnston rd, no?
Seems like photographer is standing on Johnston Rd...
re: looking north from johnston rd
No, if he was standing on Johnston Road we'd see tram lines somewhere around his feet. But there is a tram in the distance, so he's near to it.
I think my original description above is still the likely location, but it would be good to get a photo of the area from another angle to confirm it.
