Looking towards Praya East. The building on the right we have seen before on Anton Street. I think the end building on the right on the Praya is the one opposite to the easternmost section of the Blue Buildings as seen here

I take this to be a commercial photo that was kept by Leslie Warren's family as it has his sister, Evelyn in it. There is no studio imprint on the back but it is probably in the public domain. Leslie's daughter has written "Aunty Evelyn (middle), Daddy's sister at Happy Valley Racecourse". It certainly looks like Evelyn standing next to the gentleman in the dog collar holding the race programme. Is he having a flutter? I suppose he must be a friend of the family.

Date of arrival of  S.S. Resolute was on 27 March 1927. Not sure if the photo was taken during the time when the boat was in port. A Fong's Photographic Studio can be seen top right.
