EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing one of the stand pipes located in the Summers Lane dry area of North Finchley. Taken by the talented photographer Alisdair Macdonald during the 1980s, this image transports us back to an era where water scarcity and leaking repairs were prevalent concerns. Intriguingly, this photograph not only documents a specific location but also serves as a reminder of England's unpredictable weather patterns and their impact on daily life. The summer season is typically associated with lush greenery and bountiful water supply; however, this image tells a different story. It speaks volumes about the challenges faced during times of drought when access to clean water becomes scarce. The composition beautifully captures both natural elements and man-made structures. Against the backdrop of vibrant foliage, we see an old-fashioned stand pipe standing tall amidst its surroundings. Its presence signifies resilience in the face of adversity - providing essential water supply to those affected by shortages. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Memory Lane Prints, it prompts reflection on our relationship with nature and how we adapt to changing circumstances. This photograph encapsulates history within its frame – reminding us that even mundane objects like stand pipes can hold profound significance when viewed through the lens of time.
