"To muse, to creep, to halt at will, to gaze ... such sweet wayfaring" William Wordsworth

At the end of the march
I end this Anzac day series with a shot of this lovely lady, the modern face of our armed forces. She is a Wing Commander and her medals are from service in Afghanistan.
It takes little courage for me talk to strangers but I have not asked to photograph one before. It seemed very natural this day. I think the tiny camera makes a difference.
In the morning we went out to see the radio telescope 20 or so kms out of town. On another wayfaring trip we visited the radio telescope at Parkes but this one is an array of dishes on a long track that can act like one big dish.
These are touching portraits Joan. I'm glad that you had the courage to approach strangers. I haven't found mine yet.

DeleteThe whole series is a wonderful tribute to the day.
ReplyDeleteThanks Vicki. My hubby says I gave the lady an early promotion (she is a Squadron Leader) but it was so lovely to meet her either way.
