EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Ian Loasby, we are transported to the historic Kemble airfield in Gloucestershire. The image showcases a mesmerizing night shoot featuring two iconic vehicles that have left an indelible mark on transportation history. At the forefront of the frame stands a majestic Douglas C-47 Dakota aircraft, its sleek silhouette illuminated against the darkened sky. This legendary military transport plane played a pivotal role during World War II and beyond, earning its place as one of aviation's most revered workhorses. Its presence here at Kemble serves as a poignant reminder of its enduring legacy. Sharing the spotlight is an equally remarkable old steam lorry, standing proudly beside the C-47 Dakota. With its vintage charm and intricate details, this mechanical marvel harks back to an era when steam-powered vehicles were at their peak. A testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship, it represents a time when technology was rapidly evolving. The juxtaposition of these two extraordinary machines creates an atmosphere steeped in nostalgia and admiration for our collective past. Through Loasby's lens, we witness not only their individual beauty but also their harmonious coexistence within this unique setting. This print encapsulates both the grandeur of flight and the allure of ground transportation from days gone by. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come while appreciating these timeless symbols that continue to inspire awe today.
