The Grand Fleet in Scapa Flow

A starboard near beam view from slightly forward of the broadside of the Queen Elizabeth class battleship HMS Barham (1914) underway in Scapa Flow. Members of her crew can be seen mustered on the forecastle and upper decks. Beyond her to the left of the picture is the battleship HMS Agincourt (1913) and to the right just beyond Barham's bow is the seaplane carrier HMS Campania (1893). Barely visible beyond Barham and obscured by her are three other battleships comprising members of the Orion, Colossus and Bellerophon or St Vincent classes.
