Picnic

1965

Dad Peter, Mum Norma and Paul, together with a family friend, share a picnic by the car in the vicinity of Christchurch, in 1965.

Highly Commended entry in the 2012 Christchurch City Libraries Photo Hunt.

Judges' Comments:I reckon every family has a version of this shot ? the picnic by the car. This is a classic example of that most Kiwi of photos.
Jandals and biscuit tins. And isn?t a Christchurch picnic always more comfortable with the easterly?sheltering qualities of the family car to keep things cheerful?"
