This blog (created in March 2011 by Lucky) is about new entrants to the Colombo Medical Faculty of the University of Ceylon (as it was then known) in June 1962. There were a total of 166 in the batch (included 11 from Peradeniya). Please address all communications to: colmedgrads1962@gmail.com.

The second was clearly taken before the first as I see some walking in and the numbers are larger in the first. Those who appear in both are wearing the same kit which also suggests that it was on the same day and of course the first photo is of much higher resolution. Any other points Lucky?
ReplyDeleteBoth pictures had been taken at the Habarana Reunion of 2007, within a few seconds of each other. The first one is with the spouses and the second one has only the batch. Clearly, the subjects had not been ready for the second. Note, Nelun W, Harshi Bora, Padmini Ganesan in the front row in the first. The one who is walking in the second is Roshnara.
