EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Bert Hardy, we are transported back to the vibrant dockland area of Cardiff, known as Tiger Bay, in 1950. The image showcases a group of mischievous elementary-aged boys engrossed in a timeless childhood activity - skimming stones. The racially diverse nature of Tiger Bay is beautifully represented through these children who come from different backgrounds but share the same joyous spirit. Their playful energy radiates as they throw stones into the calm waters of the commercial dock, creating ripples that mirror their innocent laughter. Hardy's photography skillfully captures not only the enjoyment these boys find in their leisure activity but also hints at a sense of camaraderie among them. With full-length shots capturing their animated movements, it becomes evident that this moment is more than just throwing stones; it symbolizes friendship and shared experiences. This print serves as a nostalgic reminder of simpler times when outdoor play was cherished above all else. It transports us to an era where childhood mischief reigned supreme and technology had yet to dominate our lives. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the universal joys found within youthful innocence and how simple pleasures can bring people together regardless of race or background.
