EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "The temperatures rose again today in London and pavements became hotter and hotter" we are transported back to the scorching summer of 1976. The image captures a moment of respite amidst the sweltering heat as a man finds solace in Trafalgar Square, one of London's iconic landmarks. As the sun beats down relentlessly, casting its golden rays upon the city, the man basks in its warmth with his bare chest glistening under its intense glow. With an air of tranquility surrounding him, he takes advantage of this rare opportunity to unwind and relax amidst the bustling metropolis. Trafalgar Square's fountain provides a soothing backdrop as water cascades gently into its basin, offering some relief from the oppressive heatwave that has gripped inner London. The juxtaposition between cool water and scorching pavement creates a visual reminder of just how extreme these temperatures have become. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates not only the relentless nature of British weather but also highlights how individuals adapt and find moments of peace even during challenging times. It serves as a nostalgic reminder for those who experienced this particular summer or an intriguing glimpse into history for younger generations. Freddie Reed's skillful composition allows us to feel both the intensity of that fateful day while also capturing a sense of calmness found within Trafalgar Square's vibrant energy. This photograph is truly emblematic of summers past – where seasons were defined by their extremes and people sought refuge
