Beach scene in Rehoboth more than 100 years ago

This picture postcard was mailed in August of 1914 and shows swimmers enjoying the ocean at Rehoboth Beach somewhere in the vicinity of where Rehoboth Avenue meets the Boardwalk. The question is, how did the photographer capture this view from this angle?
