EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Three Brave Lady Swimmers: Embracing the Chill of Hastings, East Sussex Beach, Circa 1920s" 2. Description: This black-and-white photograph captures the spirit of three intrepid women as they brave the cold waters of Hastings, East Sussex beach during the 1920s. Dressed in their bathing suits and donning caps to protect against the elements, the ladies sit on the shingle beach, preparing to take the plunge. Their determination is evident as they wrap their towels around themselves, seemingly undeterred by the freezing temperatures. The pebbles underfoot and the vast expanse of the sea create a stark contrast to the warm, inviting scene of the women's cozy sitting area, filled with blankets and other comforts, just beyond the frame. The image beautifully encapsulates the sense of adventure and camaraderie that comes with embracing the natural world, even in its most challenging conditions. 3.
