Default 1935 date photograph of Australian Artillery (Militia) Unit

I was having a sort out of my collection and came across this photograph that was taken by a Melbourne photographer in 1935. I thought it may be of interest for people who are into the badges and uniforms of that era.

Apologies for the quality of my photo but the original has been rolled up for a long time and its difficult to get a good photo without light reflections.

Majority of the men are wearing the standard militia artillery uniforms of the period but there are a few variations when a closer look is taken.

Photo also includes a Staff Corps officer, sitting next to him what appears to be a member of the Instructional Corps although the collar badges have thrown me, the other officer in light uniform has artillery collars, and on the far left what appears to be a trooper from the 13th Gippsland Light Horse.

Can't pick where the photo was taken.

Happy to provide larger scan of photo if people are interested.
