EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in the nostalgic era of the 1980s, this print showcases the ingenious way Andy Banks and his friend Ricky Churchill found to make their daily commute more enjoyable. As they battled rush-hour traffic on their way to work, these two young souls discovered a unique form of communication that would leave an indelible mark on their journey. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness Andy and Ricky exchanging messages through vibrant signs held up against the car window. With each passing moment, they skillfully crafted words of love and humor, transforming mundane roads into avenues for romance and laughter. Their playful banter became a testament to youthful creativity amidst the chaos of city life. The image evokes a sense of camaraderie as both friends engage in animated conversation while peering out at fellow commuters. The expressions on their faces reveal joyous anticipation as they eagerly await responses from unsuspecting passersby or perhaps catch glimpses of admiration from intrigued drivers nearby. Photographer Roger Allston masterfully captures this heartwarming scene, immortalizing not only Andy and Ricky's inventive spirit but also an entire generation's yearning for connection during those long drives. This photograph stands as a timeless reminder that even within the confines of our vehicles, human interaction can flourish with imagination and spontaneity.
