EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported to the vibrant and lively atmosphere of the Hull Fair in north east England. As visitors gather around, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation, it is evident that this fair holds a special place in British tradition. For over 700 years, showmen and women have brought their enchanting rides and colorful stalls to Hull, creating an annual spectacle that has become one of Europe's largest travelling fairs. Amidst the dazzling array of attractions, there is one particular stall that steals the spotlight - Bob Carver's famous fish and chip stand. With its long-standing reputation as a local delicacy hotspot, Bob Carver's stall offers patrons a taste of culinary bliss with their signature dish: pattie and chips. This mouthwatering delight consists of a deep-fried potato and sage cake served alongside crispy golden chips and mushy peas. The photograph captures not only the joyous spirit of the fair but also highlights how deeply ingrained traditions can be passed down through generations. It serves as a reminder that amidst our ever-changing world, some things remain constant; like the timeless allure of thrilling rides at dusk or indulging in beloved local treats. Through Paul Ellis' lens, we witness both history unfolding before us and modern-day revelry intertwining seamlessly. This image encapsulates Britain's rich cultural heritage while celebrating community gatherings where people come together to create cherished memories year after year at events like the Hull Fair.
