EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Straight Furrows" takes us back to April 1936 in the picturesque West Lothian countryside of Scotland. The image beautifully captures the essence of early spring ploughing, showcasing a team of majestic horses diligently working on a farm near South Queensferry. West Lothian has long been known for its strong agricultural roots, but this particular region saw a shift in farming practices due to the emergence of the oil-shale industry during the 19th century. As a result, farmlands were gradually confined to coastal areas. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how industrialization can reshape landscapes and alter traditional ways of life. The monochrome format adds an element of timelessness to this portrait formation. It allows us to appreciate not only the details and textures within the frame but also invites us to reflect on bygone eras when horse-drawn ploughs were commonplace sights across rural communities. With its rich historical context and evocative imagery, this stunning print by Fox Photos/Getty Images transports viewers into an era where hard work was synonymous with tilling fields and harnessing nature's power through these magnificent animals. It is truly a testament to both human resilience and our deep connection with nature's rhythms that have shaped our world throughout history.
