The photographer is looking forward from the face of the superstructure showing passengers and a few crew members looking ahead, some using binoculars, to watch the Queen Mary as she passes across the ship's bow taking a reciprocal course. Lifeboat number 2 is on the left of the picture. Negatives numbers P84880, P85438 and P85439 were taken on the same occasion.
