EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative image of a rusty, old carousel horse, weathered by the elements and forgotten among the junk and rubbish of Maryport, Cumbria, in the 1970s. The once vibrant and merry-go-round horse now stands washed up and decayed, a relic of a bygone era. This photograph, taken by Robin Dale, captures the essence of nostalgia and the passage of time. The faded colors and worn texture of the horse's paintwork tell a story of a time when carnivals and amusement parks were a simpler pleasure, before the onset of technology and commercialization. The image also serves as a reminder of the beauty that can be found in the forgotten and overlooked corners of our world, waiting to be discovered and appreciated. This photograph is a testament to the power of memory and the enduring allure of the past." "Maryport, a coastal town in Cumbria, was once home to a thriving amusement park, complete with a carousel, where families would gather for days of fun and laughter. However, as the decades passed, the park fell into disrepair, and the carousel horses, like this one, were left to the mercy of the elements. This photograph, taken in the 1970s, captures the melancholic beauty of this forgotten relic, a poignant reminder of the past and the inexorable march of time." "Robin Dale, a talented photographer, captured this moment in time with his camera, preserving it for future generations to appreciate. The photograph is a visual feast for those who love history, nostalgia, and the beauty of the forgotten. It invites us to reflect on the past, to remember the simple pleasures of a bygone era, and to cherish the beauty that can be found in the most unexpected places.
