Wesley College group, 1907

This image is of a gum tree with college students posing on a ladder all along the trunk of the tree. There are ten men, one behind the other and one man is ‘suspended’ out to the side with one hand and one foot on the trunk. They are all wearing three-piece suits and small caps on their heads. Western Port and the foreshore are in the background. What appears to be a rope is seen to the left of the photograph.
