Challenge #10 in the "Breaking Glass" series. Hosted by CharlesB58.

Challenge has finished

"Dawning is the Day" is an underappreciated song by The Moody Blues. It evokes the late '60's idealism of leaving behind the constraints and conventions of the "Rat Race" and seeking peace through an alternative way of life. For this challenge, enter photos which either portray people who have rejected conventional jobs and/or lifestyles, or symbolize "marching to the beat of a different drummer".
