If you flip the picture around, it looks as though it was taken from the Ayre Mills looking towards the far end of the old bridge. The long lens makes the background look closer. The people are walking from Hatston towards Kirkwall and have just walked onto the bridge. Compare picture #1422. [I've mirrored the picture now- Steven]

Okay, but who are the people?

Looks like Mabel Finlay and Robin Reid pushing the prams.
