EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the winter of January 1971 at Chessington Zoo. The image showcases the unwavering dedication and resourcefulness of two brave zookeepers as they take on the icy challenge that has befallen the storks and ducks pond. With their mission dubbed "Operation Ice Break" these intrepid keepers refuse to let Mother Nature's freezing grip hinder the well-being of their beloved animals. Armed with a fairground paddleboat, they become unlikely heroes in this battle against the big freeze. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the biting cold air and hear the sound of ice cracking beneath their determined efforts. The commitment these keepers display is truly admirable, going above and beyond to ensure that even during extreme weather conditions, every creature under their care receives proper attention. This photograph not only captures a momentous event but also serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring connection with nature. It reminds us that no matter how harsh or challenging our surroundings may become, there will always be individuals willing to go to great lengths for those who cannot fend for themselves. The Mirrorpix print transports us back to an era when compassion and resilience were paramount values within society. It encapsulates both the beauty and fragility of life while celebrating human ingenuity in overcoming adversity – all through one remarkable image captured by an anonymous photographer during those wintry days at Chessington Zoo over half a century ago.
