EDITORS COMMENTS
A mesmerizing spectacle of history and tradition unfolds in this print captured by Paul Tomlins. The image transports us to the annual bonfire night parade held in Lewes, England, where the spirit of celebration and remembrance fills the air. In this vibrant display, a participant adorned in a striking traditional costume takes center stage amidst a sea of flickering torches. As darkness descends upon Lewes, flames dance gracefully from barrel to barrel, illuminating the faces of an enthusiastic crowd that has gathered to pay homage to 17 Protestant martyrs who lost their lives centuries ago. The atmosphere crackles with excitement as the procession winds its way through the ancient streets. Guy Fawkes himself seems almost present as fireworks burst overhead, painting the night sky with dazzling pyrotechnics. The echoes of gunpowder fill our senses, reminding us of both historical events and contemporary revelry. This photograph encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the enduring power of community and shared traditions. It is a reminder that even in modern times, we find solace and joy in coming together to honor our past while creating new memories for future generations. Paul Tomlins' lens has masterfully captured this extraordinary scene – one that will surely ignite curiosity and inspire wanderlust among all who gaze upon it.
