EDITORS COMMENTS

In this photograph captured by John Gay, we are transported back to the picturesque countryside of Devon in the 1960s-1970s. The image showcases a quaint road sign that reads "Duck Crossing" standing tall amidst a sea of overgrown grass and wild weeds. The sign serves as a gentle reminder of the harmonious coexistence between humans and nature in this idyllic setting. It symbolizes our respect for wildlife, urging drivers to slow down and be cautious while traversing these rural roads. Its weathered appearance tells stories of countless vehicles passing by, their occupants momentarily pausing to admire the beauty surrounding them. Surrounded by lush greenery, one can almost imagine hearing the soft quacks echoing through the air as ducks leisurely cross from one side to another. This serene scene evokes a sense of tranquility and reminds us of simpler times when life moved at a slower pace. John Gay's skillful composition captures not only the essence of this particular moment but also preserves an important aspect of local history. Through his lens, he immortalizes an era where signs like these were essential reminders for both locals and visitors alike. This print is more than just an artistic depiction; it serves as a nostalgic window into our past, reminding us to appreciate our natural surroundings and cherish those small yet significant moments that often go unnoticed in our fast-paced lives.
