Paul Hamon celebrates his birthday with friends in the newly added back-room extension of the Pooraka house in November 1985. The extension appears only recently finished — the room is still bare and the group sits at a card table on folding picnic chairs. Present are Paul Hamon, Michael Payton, Mark Hamon, Steven Payton, Josip Jukic and Adrian Miles. A birthday cake with candles and a tray of cupcakes sit on the floral tablecloth. Photograph by Howard Hamon. The restored version has been cleaned, colour-corrected and upscaled with generative AI while preserving the original scene.
