Where's Waldo Part II, Hawaiian Division 1926 Photo of 8500 soliders


Recommended Posts

Below is the Hawaiian Division photo from 1926 by the famous military photographer E.O. Goldbeck. Again my grandfather is in the photo but I have had no luck (they all look the same) finding him. I was able to find the set-up diagram showing where all the different units are standing but the hunt for Waldo continues. I am fortunate that I have a original signed copy of the photo that I picked up a few years ago.

It's interesting to see the use of "forced perspective". I often wondered how they got the perfect patch shape given that the photos were taken from an angle, rather than from a direct overhead.

 

Notice how you can see the full body of the men in the front.
