EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative monochrome photograph captures the quiet moment of anticipation as a fisherman waits for the tide to return at Happisburgh beach in Norfolk, England, during the 1990s. Dressed in weathered work clothes and boots, the lobsterman sits beside his wooden boat, the hull of which is beached on the shingle. His gaze is fixed on the horizon, the creases around his eyes deepening with each passing minute. In one hand, he holds a cigarette, the smoke curling up into the cool, salty air. The simple pleasures of the sea and the rhythm of the tides are a part of his daily life, a way of living passed down through generations. The crab pots and lobster traps stacked beside him are a testament to the hard work and dedication required to make a living from the sea. The vast expanse of water stretches out before him, the gentle lapping of the waves against the shore a soothing backdrop to the solitary figure. Happisburgh, located in the Norfolk Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is known for its beautiful beaches and rich fishing grounds. This poignant image offers a glimpse into the life of a traditional fisherman, a way of life that continues to thrive in this picturesque coastal village.
