Photograph, from left to right, of Minnie West, Bessie Velzy, Glen Velzy, Frances West and Elizabeth West standing on a shore and watching as the Catalina Ferry leaves the harbor in San Pedro. Everyone stands with their backs to the camera and looks into the distance to where the ferry is sailing. Bessie Velzy, Glen Velzy, Frances West and Elizabeth West all stand in a row in the near distance right by the water's edge. Minnie West stands separate from the group. She stands nearest to the camera at far left behind the others. The ferry is in partial view as it sails towards the right and out of frame. Two smokestacks billow smoke from the center of the ship. Water spans the space between the spectators and the ferry.
Photograph, from left to right, of Bessie Velzy, Glen Velzy, Frances West, Minnie West and Elizabeth West standing on the shore in San Pedro and gazing out over the water. The group mostly stands at center with Elizabeth standing at right. All but Glen Velzy look out towards the water to the right; he looks down towards Frances West. Minnie West, Frances West, Glen Velzy and Bessie West stand in a row at center that extends back and to the left. Frances stands mostly hidden between Minnie and Glen. Elizabeth stands in front of the group at right. They stand on a shore lined by a rock barrier that passes in front of them. It stretches across the image at an upward angle from the lower right corner towards the left and behind the group. Deadman's Island sits out in the water behind and to the left of Bessie. Water spans the entire image.
