Children sledging on washing up bowls in Greenwich Park, London, 27th December 1970
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This nostalgic print captures the sheer joy and resourcefulness of children during a snowy winter day in Greenwich Park. Taken by Freddie Reed in 1970, it transports us back to a simpler time when outdoor leisure activities were cherished and creativity knew no bounds. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a group of children gleefully sliding down the snow-covered hills of the park. What makes this scene truly remarkable is their choice of sleds - ordinary washing up bowls! Undeterred by the lack of traditional sleds, these imaginative youngsters have ingeniously repurposed household items to create their own thrilling adventure. The crisp winter air hangs heavy with excitement as rosy-cheeked faces beam with delight. Their laughter echoes through the park as they race down the slopes, leaving trails behind them like miniature comets streaking across an otherwise tranquil landscape. Greenwich Park provides a picturesque backdrop for this spontaneous display of childhood ingenuity. The towering trees stand tall against the wintry sky while patches of untouched snow blanket the ground. It's a scene straight out of a storybook – pure magic captured on film. Decades may have passed since that fateful day in December 1970, but this photograph serves as a timeless reminder that even simple pleasures can create lasting memories. It encapsulates not only an era but also our universal human capacity for imagination and playfulness amidst
