I am not sure when during the Beatles 1964 tour this photo was taken. I like to think that it was taken from the flight leaving Montreal to Key West, Florida where the Beatles were taking an unexpected side-trip due to Hurricane Dora hitting the area where they were originally intended to land. Poor Derek would have been exhausted by this point in the tour and in need of a break while you spot Paul and John in the background chatting with someone.
