Below: Winkelmann made two exposures of this scene without moving his camera. Thanks to the clock on the New Zealand Insurance Building we can see that the second plate was exposed a minute or two after the first. Click on the image to toggle between the two photographs.

Below: Winkelmann also made a third exposure, more than half an hour later. He has slightly reframed the scene, showing more at left (the Victoria Arcade building) and raised the height of his camera somewhat.
