EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful print captured by Alan Peebles, we see Father Christmas taking a well-deserved break from the chaos and excitement of the Christmas season. Seeking solace in the tranquil surroundings of Ratho near Edinburgh, Scotland, Santa Claus finds peace and relaxation in his favorite pastime - fishing. With a mischievous twinkle in his eye and a jolly smile on his face, Father Christmas sits comfortably on the riverbank. Dressed in his iconic red suit with fluffy white trimmings, he casts his line into the glistening waters as he waits patiently for a nibble. The festive atmosphere is further enhanced by an array of colorful birds perched nearby, seemingly intrigued by Santa's unusual choice of leisure activity. To add to this whimsical scene, our beloved Santa Claus can be seen engrossed in reading a copy of the Daily Record – perhaps catching up on all that has been happening while he prepares for his annual gift-giving journey around the world. This quirky detail adds an element of humor to this heartwarming image. This photograph not only captures the essence of Scottish traditions but also showcases Father Christmas as more than just a symbol of generosity and joy; it reminds us that even magical figures need moments of respite during busy times. With its nostalgic charm and playful undertones, this print serves as a reminder to find moments for ourselves amidst life's hustle and bustle – just like Father Christmas did on that peaceful December day back in 1994.
