EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Done fishing DP085522" captures a poignant scene on the picturesque island of Gugh in the Isles of Scilly. The image showcases a beached derelict fishing boat and a rib, standing as silent witnesses to a bygone era of coastal livelihoods. Mike Hesketh-Roberts skillfully portrays the melancholic beauty found in decline and decay. The weathered hulls and worn-out ropes tell stories of countless voyages at sea, once filled with hopes and dreams. Now resting on dry land, these vessels serve as haunting reminders of an industry that has faded away over time. Nature's relentless forces have taken their toll on these once-proud boats, leaving them stranded and forgotten. As we gaze upon this evocative photograph, we are reminded of the fragility of human endeavors against the vastness of the sea. It serves as a humbling reminder that even our most robust creations are subject to inevitable ruin. Yet amidst this desolate scene lies an undeniable allure—a sense of history preserved within each decaying plank. The interplay between light and shadow accentuates every detail, highlighting both strength and vulnerability simultaneously. Mike Hesketh-Roberts' masterful composition invites us to reflect upon our own transience while appreciating the enduring power held within remnants from another time. This remarkable image encapsulates not only the decline of an industry but also celebrates the resilience found in nature's ability to reclaim what was once hers alone—the ever-changing
