Over 100 community members attended the World War I photographic exhibition launch that captured the experience of Australian soldiers at the Mandurah Performing Arts Centre recently.
The free exhibition will run to April 29, displaying the photographs of Sir Charles Ryan, an Australian surgeon and army officer who captured images of mateship, stoicism and the dogged persistence that became the spirit of Anzac.
