Hi Guys

Thank you both for your imput.  I had not noticed the Photographers imprint.  Have had a close look, to me it looks like ( H. R. ) Hembry 15a Donegal Place (taken from the 1910 BSD).

The next question, why would someone in Belfast be wearing an Australian uniform.  Have checked with my cousin in Australia, I thought it would have been grandfather, I am told it isn't.

The mysstery deepens

Regards

Richard

Isn't the First Photograph (i.e. RM and Lady) the only one taken in Belfast ?? so why the question about the Digger being in Belfast?
Iban ( or am I missing something?)

Having played around with my PC I withdraw that last remark, now I can see the imprint - apologies,
Iban.

I'm researching Moore in Belfast and possibly Troon.
