This is from the monument at the Female Factory - a 19th century prison for transported women and children. Most of the prisoners had been convicted of petty crimes but they were doing very hard time far away from their homes in England.

I made this video on our first day as a kind of trailer for the adventure to come. Only Mikkel Aaland, Peter Krogh, Bruce Dale, Ahira Maasaki, and Jackie King had arrived yet. We ran out and shot some video and stills and put this together. The still images are by Mikkel, Bruce, and Peter. Peter shot the 153 images that make up the arrival montage. The video was shot with a Canon HV30 and edited with iMovie.
