Lest We Forget - New Brighton ANZAC Day


New Brighton War Memorial,
Christchurch, 2009


A solitary seagull serves as sentry to the dead, facing into the prevailing nor-easterly off the Pacific, a mere stone's throw from the memorial.

The Bag Lady, with her trademark hat of many mini stuffed animals, passes by the War Memorial to her right. The New Brighton public library & pier lie behind her, with the equally trademark clock tower in left background.
