EDITORS COMMENTS
The scorching summer of 1976 left its mark on Oldbury Reservoir, near Atherstone in North Warwickshire. This print captures the exposed lakebed, revealing a hauntingly beautiful landscape that tells a story of extreme weather conditions and their impact on nature. In this snapshot from July 19th, 1976, we witness brave anglers risking the treacherous mud as they pursue schools of fish trapped in the dwindling area of water. The cracked and baked surface serves as a reminder of the relentless drought that plagued the region during that time. The image exudes an intense heatwave atmosphere with its depiction of parched land under a blazing sun. It transports us back to an era when fishing was not just a hobby but also an act of resilience against Mother Nature's whims. This photograph is more than just a visual representation; it encapsulates the spirit and determination of those who refused to let adverse circumstances deter them from pursuing their passions. It stands as a testament to human adaptability and our ability to find solace even in challenging times.
