EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of history and nature intertwining at Birdoswald Roman Fort in Cumbria. The prominent brown tourist signage, standing tall against an overcast skyline, points towards the ancient fortification that once guarded Hadrian's Wall. Alun Bull skillfully frames this moment, showcasing not only the physical remnants of a bygone era but also the enduring allure of exploration. The sign itself serves as a gateway to adventure, beckoning visitors to delve into the rich tapestry of Roman heritage that lies beyond. Its weathered appearance hints at countless footsteps taken by curious souls who have embarked on this historical pilgrimage before us. As we gaze upon this image, our imagination is transported back in time to when soldiers patrolled these very grounds and life thrived within these stone walls. It reminds us of the ingenuity and engineering prowess displayed by those who built such magnificent structures centuries ago. Yet amidst all its historical significance, there is also a sense of tranquility present in this photograph. The muted colors and brooding sky create an atmosphere that invites contemplation and reflection. It encourages us to pause for a moment and appreciate both the grandeur of human achievement and the beauty found in nature's ever-changing backdrop. Alun Bull has masterfully captured not just a mere signpost but rather an invitation to immerse ourselves in history while embracing our surroundings with reverence. This print stands as a testament to our innate curiosity about where we come from and how it shapes our present-day existence
