EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time during the summer of 1940 on the eastern end of the Esplanade in Bognor Regis. The image showcases a dedicated gun crew amidst the chaos and uncertainty of World War II. These brave soldiers, adorned in their crisp uniforms, stand tall with unwavering determination. The composition exudes a sense of camaraderie as these men work together seamlessly to operate their powerful weapon. Their faces reveal both focus and resolve, embodying the spirit of resilience that defined this tumultuous era. Positioned against the backdrop of a serene beach, it is almost surreal to witness such contrasting elements coexist within one frame.
