EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken circa 1987, a man can be seen walking along the south pier at the entrance to Old Sharpness Dock in Gloucestershire, England. The pier, with its aged and weathered boards, curves gently around the bend, leading the eye towards the distant horizon and the vast expanse of the tidal estuary beyond. The man's solitary figure adds a sense of melancholy to the scene, as if he is lost in thought or contemplating the passing of time. Old Sharpness Dock, once a bustling hub of commercial activity, now stands as a testament to the past. The dock, which was built in the late 1800s, was used to transport coal and other goods from the nearby canal to ships waiting at the entrance. However, with the decline of the coal industry and the rise of larger, more efficient ports, Old Sharpness Dock fell into disuse. Despite its history, the dock remains an intriguing and picturesque attraction for visitors to the area. The pier, with its distinctive curve, provides a perfect vantage point from which to watch the tide come in and out, and the quiet, peaceful atmosphere invites reflection and relaxation. The photograph, taken by acclaimed photographer Philip Dunn, captures the essence of this unique and historic place. The grainy texture of the print, combined with the muted tones of the image, adds to the sense of nostalgia and the passing of time. Overall, this photograph is a beautiful and poignant reminder of the past, and the enduring power of nature to shape and transform our surroundings.
