Taken the same day as the previously posted image, Dad (Ray Wright) can be seen here in the centre-right of this picture, to the right of the pointing man and behind the standing man in the bow-tie. Dad's hat is jauntily tilted. Looks like everyone was having a jolly day!
Dad told me the photo was taken at The Basin on Pittwater in Sydney, a picnic/recreation area which is only accessible via water, even to this day. I don't know the reason for the gathering, but I'm guessing that because several of the men are wearing Rugby jerseys, it may have been to play football. Some of the men are also wearing paper party hats, traditionally worn at Christmas time in Australia, which may be another clue.
