EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Mike Moore, we witness a poignant moment before an audacious adventure. Richard Branson, the renowned entrepreneur and visionary behind Virgin Group, stands on the brink of an extraordinary journey as he prepares to board the Virgin Global Challenger balloon. The setting is Marakech, Morocco in the 1990s - a vast desert landscape that adds an air of mystique and anticipation to this historic event. As Richard stands tall with determination etched across his face, he is enveloped in love and support from his wife Joan and son Sam. In a tender gesture of affection, Joan leans forward to plant a loving kiss on her husband's cheek while Sam embraces him tightly. Their presence serves as a reminder that even amidst grand endeavors, family remains at the core of one's strength. This photograph also symbolizes bravery in the face of adversity. Although ultimately unsuccessful due to unforeseen accidents during its attempted circumnavigation of the world, this hot air balloon race represents Richard Branson's relentless pursuit for pushing boundaries and embracing challenges head-on. Mike Moore skillfully captures not only the physicality but also the emotions surrounding this significant moment in history. Through his lens, we are transported back to witness both personal connections and global ambitions intertwine against an awe-inspiring backdrop. This image truly encapsulates courage, resilience, and unwavering determination - qualities that have defined Richard Branson throughout his remarkable career.
