Julie (116) - Pen in her belonging place

So many of the people marching on ANZAC Day are institutionalised: they just give their full name when asked! Name! Rank! Serial Number!

I wonder how many people join the army, navy, airforce, police, marching band because it provides a structure for their life. A structure with rules and yet with that feeling of belonging that is hard to come by when one wanders alone and aimlessly.

Pen. Pen Bambrick.

As with so many of mine, the focus is just that bit off. Giving me the dry rots, let me tell you!

She looks so serious. Try manual focus for a couple and see if it helps.
