The locations of the photographs include Israel (Palestine): Jerusalem, Tel Aviv; Egypt: Cairo, Alexandria, Sakkara; Cyprus: Nicosia, Kyrenia, Troodos; Lebanon (Syria): Beirut, and Great Britain: London, Bishopthorpe. Themes within this album include people and locations associated with military service, monuments and ancient sites, holidays and leisure time, and finally the return home of Geoffrey Smith to his family in London.
