EDITORS COMMENTS
Ashar Creek and the Whiteley Bridge - Basra, Iraq (circa 1917): A captivating snapshot of history, this image transports us back in time to the banks of Ashar Creek in Basra, Iraq during the early years of the 20th century. The serene waters of the creek, teeming with small boats, flow gently beneath the Whiteley Bridge, a testament to the ingenuity and engineering prowess of the British military during World War I. The bridge, named after Sir Percy Whiteley, the British High Commissioner in Iraq at the time, was built to facilitate the movement of troops and supplies between Basra and the surrounding areas. The bridge's elegant design, with its arches and intricate detailing, stands in stark contrast to the rugged terrain and harsh desert environment that surrounds it. The scene is further enlivened by the bustling activity on the creek. Small boats, laden with goods and people, ply the waters, their sails billowing in the wind. The banks of the creek are dotted with palm trees and other vegetation, providing a lush and verdant backdrop to the industrial hustle and bustle. Despite the evidence of human activity, there is a sense of tranquility and peace in this image, a reminder of a time when the world was not quite so complex and the simple pleasures of life were enough. The Ashar Creek and the Whiteley Bridge in Basra, Iraq, remain a fascinating glimpse into the past, a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of this ancient land.
