EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness a remarkable moment in history as Richard Branson, the renowned entrepreneur and millionaire, is kissed by one of the ground crew members of Virgin Global Challenger balloon. The image captures the anticipation and excitement before takeoff on an audacious attempt to circumnavigate the world in Marakech, Morocco during the 1990s. Set against the backdrop of a vast desert landscape, this photograph symbolizes both ambition and adventure. Branson's fearless spirit shines through as he prepares to embark on an African air race that would test his limits and push boundaries. However, despite his entrepreneurial prowess and determination, fate had other plans for this hot air balloon venture. While not mentioning commercial use or any connection to his company, it is impossible to ignore Branson's indomitable spirit showcased here. This failed attempt serves as a reminder that even great entrepreneurs encounter setbacks along their journey towards success. Mike Moore skillfully captures this iconic moment with finesse and precision. Through his lens, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal chapter in aviation history - where dreams soared high but ultimately fell short. This print stands as a testament to human resilience and our unwavering desire to conquer new frontiers regardless of the outcome.
