EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the year 1953, where the crofters of the picturesque Island of Soay in the Hebrides face an uncertain future. The image captures a moment of both resilience and humor amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, our eyes are drawn to a group of women huddled together on their beloved island. With goats by their side and determination etched on their faces, they prepare for evacuation to the neighboring Island of Mull. Their once thriving home can no longer sustain them, forcing them to seek new opportunities elsewhere. Amidst this poignant scene, one cannot help but notice a touch of lightheartedness. A woman sits atop a wheelbarrow filled with hay while playfully feeding her furry companions. This small act brings laughter and camaraderie during these challenging times. However, amidst all the movement and change surrounding them, there remains one constant presence - Mrs. And Mrs. Geddes. They stand firm in their decision to stay behind on Soay after purchasing their house – perhaps holding onto memories or simply embracing solitude. This photograph encapsulates not only the struggles faced by these resilient crofters but also showcases moments that bring joy even in difficult circumstances. It serves as a reminder that even when life takes unexpected turns, human spirit prevails through unity and laughter.
