The image captures a moment in time that tells a story of camaraderie and hard work within England's fishing industry.

Their weathered faces reveal years spent battling the harsh elements of Yorkshire's coast. The backdrop showcases St Andrews Dock in all its industrial glory - towering cranes and boats dotting the landscape. This bustling scene is juxtaposed with the tranquility exuded by these two friends as they share a quiet moment together.
