EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming print titled "Old boys watch the girls go by" we are transported back to a nostalgic summer day in Silsden, Yorkshire. The image captures a group of elderly gentlemen sitting on a bench at the junction of Keighly Road, engrossed in watching the world pass by. Taken on August 9th, 1979, this snapshot freezes a moment in time when life seemed simpler and slower-paced. Amongst these wise old souls is Willie Hardisty, pictured second from the left, surrounded by his beloved bench pals. Their weathered faces tell stories of years gone by as they observe with twinkling eyes. The focal point of their attention? A woman walking past them, capturing their collective gaze. Perhaps it's her grace or beauty that has captivated these men who have seen so much throughout their lives. As they sit there with their loyal canine companion beside them, one can't help but wonder about the memories and experiences that flood their minds as they silently enjoy this scene unfold before them. This photograph evokes feelings of nostalgia and reminds us of times when community bonds were strong and simple pleasures brought joy. It serves as a beautiful reminder to cherish those fleeting moments that make up our everyday lives – moments like these where old friends gather together on an ordinary bench to appreciate the beauty around them.
