Eight people standing posing behind two giant tortoises in the Seychelles

The tortoises are in the centre of the image, one facing away from the camera and one with is side to the camera. Only their shells and legs are visible. Seven men and one boy can be seen behind the animals, standing at intervals in a rough line. Most wear trousers and jackets, and all wear hats. At least two of the men have tobacco pipes.
