Left to right: Geoffrey Buckman, David Prince, E Miller, H Buckanan [Buchanan?] and C Miller. Another figure (unidentified) sits on top of the log. The totara is 12 feet through and about 60 feet long. This photograph was taken on C M Miller's farm at Apiti. On closer inspection, the image has been doctored to cover holes in the original picture. The second and third figure on the left have been partially drawn in. There are other instances of these additions throughout the image.
