EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Alun Bull captures a poignant scene within the Winter Gardens in Morecambe, Lancashire. The image showcases a damaged projecting exit sign in the refreshment bar, serving as a powerful symbol of decay and neglect. The worn-out signage stands out against the backdrop of this once vibrant theatre, now weathered by time and abandonment. Its broken state tells a story of forgotten memories and lost opportunities. As we gaze upon it, we can almost hear echoes of laughter and applause that once filled these walls. The Winter Gardens was undoubtedly an architectural gem in its heyday, attracting visitors from near and far to experience its grandeur. However, this photograph reminds us that even majestic structures are not immune to the passage of time. Alun Bull's keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate both the beauty and fragility found within historical sites like this one. Through his lens, he invites us to reflect on our responsibility towards preserving our cultural heritage. In this single frame, we witness how nature reclaims what is left behind while simultaneously recognizing the importance of cherishing our past. This photograph serves as a reminder that every building has stories to tell – tales waiting patiently for someone willing to listen with their eyes wide open.
