EDITORS COMMENTS
Nestled in the picturesque village of Bickleigh, Devon, this charming photograph captures the essence of a simpler time. The man and woman, dressed in clothing reminiscent of the 20th century, stand knee-deep in the crystal-clear waters of the River Exe. The tranquil scene is framed by the ancient Bickleigh Bridge, its arches reaching up to touch the pink blossoms of the trees overhead. The man, with a determined look in his eyes, focuses intently on the fish swimming just below the surface. His fishing rod, with a bright red line, is poised, ready to make a swift strike. The woman, dressed in a pretty, floral print dress, watches on with a sense of anticipation, her hands gently resting on the grassy riverbank. The idyllic setting, with its lush greenery and the gentle flow of the water, is a testament to the natural beauty of the West Country. The scene is bathed in the soft light of spring, casting a warm glow over the couple and the surrounding landscape. This photograph is a window into the past, a moment frozen in time that invites us to imagine the stories of the people who once stood in this very spot. It is a reminder of the simple pleasures of life, the joy of spending a day by the river with a loved one, and the timeless allure of the great outdoors.
