EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Royal/Mystery/Dog: Sheep Farm" we are transported to the rugged and picturesque hills of mid-Wales in December 1970. The image captures a shepherd standing amidst the vast landscape, his trusted gun by his side, as he surveys the grazing sheep with a mix of concern and resignation. The caption reveals a chilling tale that unfolds in these serene surroundings. The locals have dubbed this mischievous canine "Ci-ar-diawl" meaning devil-dog in Welsh. For six long months, Ci-ar-diawl has wreaked havoc on the flocks of sheep that roam these remote hills. His macabre visiting card is left behind after each attack - another lifeless sheep. As we gaze at this powerful photograph, we can almost feel the weight of responsibility weighing heavily upon the shepherd's shoulders. The sigh escaping from his lips speaks volumes about the toll taken by Ci-ar-diawl's relentless plundering and ravaging. This image serves as a poignant reminder of both nature's beauty and its unforgiving realities. It encapsulates not only the breathtaking landscapes but also highlights the challenges faced by those who depend on these lands for their livelihoods. Through Memory Lane Prints' lens, we are granted a glimpse into an era where shepherds stood as guardians against unseen forces threatening their way of life. This evocative snapshot immortalizes their struggle for protection amidst Wales' majestic yet treacherous terrain
