EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Bob Battersby from EyeUbiquitous, we are transported to the quaint town of Lewes in East Sussex, England. The image showcases the vibrant and lively Mad Jacks Morris Dancers outside the historic Dorset Pub on Malling Street. These talented dancers, adorned in traditional costumes, bring a sense of joy and celebration to the streets of Lewes during the annual festival in May. As they gracefully move to the rhythm of traditional music, both men and women come together as a united group to showcase their passion for arts and culture. The origins of this unique dance troupe can be traced back to Mad Jack Fuller himself - an eccentric 18th-century figure who was known for his extravagant follies. Named after him, these Morris Dancers pay homage to his legacy by keeping alive ancient traditions that have been passed down through generations. This snapshot perfectly captures the essence of English tradition and community spirit that is deeply rooted in Lewes' cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modern times, there are still pockets where age-old customs thrive with great enthusiasm. Bob Battersby's skillful lens has immortalized this moment forever, allowing us all to appreciate the beauty and vibrancy found within our own local communities.
