EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a man is seen walking his dog along the tranquil waterside embankment of a lake or pond above Blaenavon's council estate in South Wales. The scene is bathed in the soft, ethereal light of an early winter morning, with the sun just beginning to rise over the horizon. The man, dressed in a heavy coat and hat, gazes intently at the water's edge, while his loyal dog, with its ears perked up and tail wagging, explores the surroundings with eager curiosity. The council houses, nestled in the valley below, are barely visible in the distance, their red brick facades blending seamlessly into the landscape. The stillness of the scene is broken only by the gentle ripples on the water's surface, created by the occasional passing of a boat or the occasional splash of a fish jumping out of the water. The photograph, taken in 1988, captures the beauty and serenity of the area, offering a momentary escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The image is a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures of nature and the companionship of a beloved pet. The photograph was taken by renowned Welsh photographer Philip Dunn, and is a testament to his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time. This photograph, with its timeless quality, continues to resonate with viewers, inviting them to reflect on the beauty and tranquility of the natural world and the joy of a quiet walk with a faithful companion.
