EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we see Lighthouse keeper Colin Jones patiently waiting on the helipad for the arrival of a helicopter during his last relief tour to the Bishop Rock Lighthouse. The year is December 1992, and Colin, affectionately known as Fraggle by his friends and colleagues, has dedicated six years of his life to tending this iconic structure. The image captures both the solitude and grandeur of Colin's surroundings. Towering rocks surround him as he stands tall against the backdrop of a vast sea. The lighthouse itself stands proudly in all its architectural glory, serving as a beacon of hope for sailors navigating treacherous waters. Colin's commitment to his role as a lighthouse keeper is evident in every line etched on his face. His weathered hands tell tales of countless storms battled and lives saved under his watchful eye. As he waits for the helicopter that will bring relief from isolation, one can only imagine the mix of emotions running through his mind - gratitude for being able to serve in such an extraordinary place yet anticipation for what lies ahead. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of those unsung heroes who dedicate their lives to ensuring safe passage for others at sea. It is a testament to Colin's unwavering dedication and love for this noble profession that continues to inspire us today.
