Real photo postcard (RPPC) showing a heavy sea viewed from the deck of a ship, looking port side over the rail — churning white-capped waves fill the frame, the ship heeled in the swell, with rigging and deck hardware visible at right. The dramatic on-board perspective places the viewer on the rolling deck. Produced by Wellington, New Zealand photographer David James Aldersley, catalog no. A3791.
