EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Three year old Darren Fitzsimons holds the hands of his mother Eileen and fifteen year old Mike Bocock as they make their way through the deep flood waters on Kingsway, Manchester" we are transported back to a rainy day in July 1973. The image captures a beautiful moment of resilience and unity within a family facing adversity. Despite the challenging circumstances caused by the flooding, young Darren fearlessly takes hold of his mother's hand while being supported by his older brother, Mike. Their determination is evident as they navigate through the deep waters that have transformed Kingsway into an aquatic playground. The joyous expressions on their faces reveal that even amidst chaos, there is room for fun and adventure. This snapshot encapsulates the essence of childhood innocence as Darren splashes through puddles with unbridled enthusiasm. This photograph serves as a reminder that families can find strength in one another during difficult times. It showcases how love and support can help us weather any storm - both literally and metaphorically. Taken by photographer Eric Graham during the 1970s, this timeless image immortalizes not only a specific moment but also represents universal themes such as family bonds, resilience, and finding joy in unexpected situations.
