265 crews of women's eights took part in the annual Head of River Race on the River Thames. The race started in 1927 between two crews, Ace and Weybridge LARC and has grown in recent years to over two hundred rowing crew entries. The race takes place between Mortlake and Putney and goes in the opposite direction on the river to the annual Boat Race between Oxford and Cambridge. Photo by Michael Walter/Troika
