EDITORS COMMENTS
by Helen McKie: A Captivating Glimpse into the Elegant World of 1920s Hotel Balls Step back in time and immerse yourself in the enchanting atmosphere of the Roaring Twenties, as captured in this stunning photograph by Helen McKie titled "Dance Time." The image transports us to a grand hotel ballroom, where the magic of the night unfolds from 11pm to 2am in the year 1928. The elegant ballroom, adorned with ornate chandeliers and lush foliage, sets the stage for an unforgettable evening of entertainment. Couples, dressed in their finest attire, gracefully glide across the polished dancefloor, lost in the moment as they sway to the rhythm of the live band's lively tunes. The energy and excitement in the room are palpable, as the couples laugh, chat, and dance the night away. The 1920s were a time of great change and liberation, and the dance floor became a symbol of this newfound freedom. The Charleston, Fox Trot, and Tango were just a few of the popular dances that swept the nation, and the hotel balls provided the perfect setting for people to let loose and enjoy themselves. This photograph, taken by the talented Helen McKie, offers a captivating glimpse into this bygone era. It invites us to imagine the stories of the people in the image, their laughter, their dreams, and their memories. "Dance Time" is not just a photograph; it's a window into history, a reminder of a time when life was a little slower, and the simple joy of dancing with a loved one was enough to make every moment unforgettable.
