EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by General, we are transported back to the 1960s in Sidcup, Kent, England. The image depicts a group of young men sitting comfortably outside a tailors shop during a sudden shower. Contrary to what one might assume at first glance, these boys are not engaged in any form of protest but rather taking advantage of the shelter provided by the entrance. The scene exudes an air of youthful camaraderie as they huddle together under the awning, seeking refuge from the rain. Their short haircuts and fashionable attire reflect the style trends prevalent during that era. It is evident that these individuals possess their own unique sense of fashion and individuality. General's expertly composed photograph captures a fleeting moment frozen in time - an ordinary yet extraordinary scene that encapsulates both unity and resilience amidst unexpected circumstances. The contrast between their relaxed postures against the backdrop of raindrops falling creates a visually striking composition. This print serves as a poignant reminder of simpler times when even mundane moments held significance for those who lived them. It invites us to reflect on our own experiences with friendship, community, and finding solace in unexpected places
