Two photo of Australian vernacular photography exhibition

I have no idea about this pictures. I mean I do not know exactly, in what kind of ceremony this picture was taking, but the name which is showed in the pictures remind me the Vietnam war. And I think the ceremony was about returning of Australian and New Zealand's troop from Vietnam war. And it take me back in to Vietnam's war and persuade me to think about those soldier who died in Vietnam and the people who are victim.

This photo of crowning ceremony, Jacaranda Festival Grafton remind me to think about coming festival. And it shows me the Australian's culture, which is actually a tradition and by the day it has been up to date and it is continuing.
