EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Stewart Fraser, we are transported back to the intense atmosphere of the 1981 World Championship quarter-final in snooker. The image showcases the legendary Steve Davis in action, locked in a fierce battle against Terry Griffiths. Davis, known for his exceptional skills and unwavering focus, is seen here displaying his trademark precision and concentration as he lines up a crucial shot. His eyes fixed on the table with determination, one can almost feel the weight of expectation that rests upon his shoulders. The tension is palpable; every movement and decision holds immense importance at this stage of such a prestigious tournament. As spectators watch intently from their seats surrounding the green baize arena, they bear witness to an enthralling clash between two masters of their craft. Fraser's expertly composed photograph perfectly encapsulates both the physicality and mental intensity required in professional snooker. The play of light and shadow adds depth to each detail - from Davis' focused expression to the intricate patterns on the tablecloth. This iconic snapshot serves as a reminder of Davis' dominance during that era while also immortalizing an unforgettable moment in snooker history. It invites us to reflect upon not only Davis' extraordinary talent but also highlights how sports photography can capture fleeting moments that resonate with fans for years to come.
