About this postcard

A black-and-white photograph shows six or seven people, mostly women in light dresses with one man in a dark suit, standing along the crest of a bare sandy hill or dune with their arms raised in a celebratory pose. Behind them a flat expanse of water meets a pale, hazy sky, and the foreground slope is covered in sparse dune grass and scrub. The picture is an informal outing snapshot rather than a commercial view, so no location can be identified from the image itself.
