EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the determination and resilience of a local fisherman as he ascends the cobbled slipway of Robin Hood's Bay in North Yorkshire, England, during a wet winter's day in 1989. Dressed in traditional wet-weather gear, including oilskin waterproofs and wellington boots, the fisherman carries a heavy lobster pot up the steep, uneven terrain, undeterred by the driving rain and treacherous conditions. The Bay Hotel, a well-known landmark, looms in the background, adding to the sense of history and tradition that pervades this charming fishing village. The photograph, taken in the 1980s, offers a glimpse into the daily life of a fisherman in this picturesque but challenging coastal community. The image, by photographer Philip Dunn, is a poignant reminder of the hard work and dedication required to make a living from the sea, and the unwavering spirit of those who call the coast their home.
