EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Arctic Summer in Northern Norway" transports us back to a scorching hot day on the 8th of July, 1972. As the sun blazed overhead, children sought refuge from the sweltering heat by frolicking in the refreshing sea waters. This particular summer was one for the records, with temperatures soaring to an unprecedented 36 degrees Celsius - a stark contrast to what one would expect in this Arctic region. In this snapshot of pure joy and innocence, we witness a group of kids immersed in their own world of laughter and friendship. Unfazed by societal norms or boundaries, they playfully pedal their bicycles through the shallow waves. The water splashes around them as they create their own aquatic adventure. The image beautifully encapsulates childhood memories that transcend time and place. It reminds us of carefree days spent under clear blue skies, where worries were washed away by each playful splash. Bill Rowntree's lens captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes nostalgia for simpler times when summers seemed endless and friendships were forged through shared experiences. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph from Memory Lane Prints, it serves as a reminder that even amidst extraordinary circumstances like an arctic summer heatwave, children will always find ways to embrace life's simple pleasures – creating lasting memories along the way.
