Default HMAS Sydney I or II or ?

Ya gots ta have a laugh at this news story's end image....

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-05-0...y-sank/6438496

The story is about the loss of HMAS Sydney II in 1941, the image is taken from the deck of HMAS Sydney I in 1914 .....

Apparently someone in the news room simply lifted an image from the AWM database without realising there was more than one 'Sydney' (at least they didn't use an image of the aircraft carrier!!)
