Passengers bobbing for apples on the CARPATHIA, a popular deck game at this time. There is a crowd of passengers watching. From an album of photos from a 1908 voyage to the Mediterranean. There is a crewman (possibly a deck steward) in the background who very much resembles one of the CARPATHIA stewards in photos from 1912 when the ship rescued TITANIC survivors.
