In the back ground, walking towards them, is an umpire in dark trousers, white coat and white hat. Further in the background is the stadium full of spectators. On the reverse of the photograph, handwritten in cursive script, "Colleen: What a pity that the best cricketer in Australia (if not the world) is partly obscured by the top of the fence. But it's just like Keith Miller to get all the publicity!! Still, I must admit that it is a good snap of the latter - Hubba, Hubba! 21/1/47 Joan".
