EDITORS COMMENTS
In this delightful print from June 1979, we are transported back to a moment of lightheartedness and playfulness with renowned jockey Willie Carson. The image captures Carson in a mischievous mood as he engages in some tomfoolery with a top hat. With his infectious smile and twinkling eyes, it's evident that he is thoroughly enjoying himself. Carson, known for his exceptional skills on the racecourse, takes a break from the intensity of his sport to indulge in some light-hearted antics. Dressed in vibrant jockey silks, he adds an unexpected touch of elegance by donning the classic accessory - a top hat. This juxtaposition between the formal attire and Carson's comical expression creates an amusing contrast that brings out laughter even decades later. The photograph perfectly encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie and joy within the world of horse racing during those glorious days of the 1970s. It serves as a reminder that even amidst intense competition and high stakes, there is always room for laughter and levity. Reg Lancaster skillfully captured this candid moment through his lens, freezing it forever in time. As we gaze upon this charming snapshot today, we can't help but be reminded of how important it is to embrace moments of silliness and find joy in unexpected places – just like Willie Carson fooling about with a top hat on that sunny day in June 1979.
