Greg, if I'm as you describe, how come I have so often asked your advice on things?

One problem here we have is that I didn't get to complete my last post due to a problem with my computer.

I was to add:

If it was Bergy, or any other serious photographer, he would have had his camera out and ready for action, as does the bloke sitting down low.

I would further suggest that the person in question is wearing white overalls with a coat over them, indicating that he's either a flag marshall or an observer working on that flag point and that it's a cold day.

But I don't know everything, so I could be wrong.

I think you'll find it's a bit too early for Bergy...

The camera is still in its beautiful leather case...so you wouldn't have been able to take the numbers!

Crikey Mick, how did you know that !

Thanks Greg...you wouldn't know the pre-Zeiss model and serial numbers by chance?

The chap in the dark glasses, looking towards the Cortina. looks very much like Ray Berghouse to me. There seems to be a camera hanging around his neck, in Berghouse fashion.

Thanks Steve...just like a lot of things in my life at the moment...just blurs out

Yes, definitely a flag point and flaggies... and 'visitors'...

The clearer pic shows it's not a woman, too, rather a man in shorts and long socks.

Here you go Mick. Sorry, it just blurs out.

Sure...anyone could make a simple mistake like that...but you, with your encyclopaedic brain?

by **Ray Bell** » Mon Mar 30, 2015 7:52 am

I was looking at the wrong picture, Mick...

The photographers on the outside of the curve.

They're holding cameras with long lenses, they are located between the flag points prior to the Causeway, neither of your suggestions apply.

There was no noise monitoring in 1964 anyway.

So we have changed our tune have we Ray?

It might just be flag point M1, which was later done away with...

It's an odd crowd there with the woman and all, but could that be a yellow flag she's holding?

A photographer joining the flaggies wouldn't be unexpected either.

I zoomed in on the pic and that's my best guess...although, my imaginary friend did agree with me...except that she did say that what I thought was a sign could have been a wind barrier/sound deflector for beside the directional mic...but I thought that unlikely.

Thanks Steve, I did zoom in but a higher resolution shot is likely to tell us more

Please, Ray...there is only so much of your vast knowledge that us mere mortals can handle...

The fella sitting on what is probably a camera case might have a long lens in hand

Moving Right to Left,

the female looking person far right seems to be holding a sign...
the fella with his back to camera, seems to playing a baby grand...but could be some sort of console (like noise monitoring for an OB)
the fella with dark glasses watching the cars that have passed, seems to have a directional mic or flag available...OB sound pick up or yellow flag relay?

Interesting trackside group...noise monitoring? One lap to go point?
