    Luc Van den Borre. Our photographer position predictions are within yards, but I think you are closest.  I’d considered the white building behind the stern, but in overhead photography the white smudge looks more like a beached motor cruiser.  Looking at it in Street View from the North Bank it shows clearly as a building on the foreshore, so the view past the stern fits in with your prediction.  I struggled for a long time over the view past the bow.  The buildings looked too close, and I couldn’t find a roof that fitted.  Today on Google Maps I spotted the zig-zag shadow of the largest shed. I also believe I can see naval superstructure above the white van, so well done you.

    However, I did have to tilt my line-of-sight ruler some way anticlockwise to be able to see the Naval Sheds, and I realise now she’s not moored starboard-side-to on the baby unnamed wharf; she’s moored port-side-to slightly further back on Bledisloe Wharf immediately to the east, a more respectable berth for a vessel of her size. You can see from the direction her bow lines are led.  然后一切都适合。DaveP
