EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of a traditional hunt in the picturesque English countryside of Herefordshire during the late 1970s. The huntsman, an elderly gentleman with a distinguished air, stands proudly among his hounds and horses, ready to embark on the day's pursuit. A young boy, dressed in hunting attire, gazes intently at the scene before him, his expression a mixture of excitement and wonder. The hounds, ears pricked and noses to the ground, anticipate the start of the hunt with bated breath. Their keen senses are on high alert, sensing the scent of their quarry - the elusive fox - in the crisp autumn air. The huntsman's horse, its coat glistening with sweat, whinnies softly, sensing the tension in the air. The hunt, a time-honored English tradition, has been a part of rural life in Herefordshire for centuries. It is a sport that has both its supporters and detractors, but there is no denying the sense of community and camaraderie that it fosters among those who participate. The hunt is not just about the chase, but also about the shared experience of being a part of something larger than oneself. As the huntsman gives the signal, the hounds and horses surge forward, their hooves thundering on the ground as they set off in pursuit of their quarry. The scene is a testament to the enduring allure of the English countryside and the traditions that define it.
