At http://gwulo.com/atom/22775 I posted a photo labelled ShekO Beach by my cousin (the little girl in this picture) when she was trying to identify the pictures after her mother died. Andrew Suddaby replied that it was actually Big Wave Bay. I have now found the sequel in another album and lo, the legend on the back is "Big Wave Bay" written in my aunt's hand (the mother in this picture.) The smartly dressed mystery man in the background of first picture is now sitting on the rock perhaps telling a story. <Read more ...>
I had dated this photo as 1930s, as it seemed to be in the same sequence as the so-called "View to Kowloon" from the collection of Leslie and Cicely Warren. If the "View to Kowloon" was clearly taken in the 1920s, then this shot which is also from the top of Broadwood Road, may be 1920s too. Grateful for any opinions about that. <Read more ...>
