I assume that 'Pastor Løchen' is the same as Kristen Løken, the Lutheran pastor from Lillehammer who was hired, in February 1912, by whaling manager C.A. Larsen. Two months later Kristen Løken arrived on Grytviken, South Georgia, where he worked as a priest until June 1914. In the 1980s the Sandefjord Whaling Museum obtained Løken's letters from this period (1912-1914, mainly addressed to his parents), and 135 photographs that he mainly took himself.
This picture is likely to have been taken at South Georgia, and possibly shows Cumberland Bay.
