A view of the light cruisers HMS Centaur (1916), HMS Canterbury (1916) and HMS Concord (1916) underway in the North Sea.

A view from the light cruiser HMS Aurora (1913) towards the starboard sides of the three light cruisers HMS Centaur (1916), HMS Canterbury (1916) and HMS Concord (1916) underway in the North Sea. On the horizon, just off the bow of Canterbury, is an unidentified destroyer heading in the opposite direction (port broadside view). The wash of the Aurora is in the foreground of the photograph.

The negative has a couple of small areas where fabric fibres have stuck to the non-emulsion side. This does not affect the image too much.
