EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the quaint town of Bedlington in 1970, showcases the unique and intriguing spectacle of the Leasowes Dancing Shadows, proudly owned by Taunt. The image captures the essence of autumn with its warm, golden hues and crisp, cool air, as evidenced by the vibrant foliage and the cozy sweaters worn by the onlookers. At the heart of the scene, a group of Bedlington Terriers, a breed native to the region, are gathered around a circular pit, their eyes fixed on the shadowy figure cast upon the ground. The Dancing Shadow, a popular local tradition, is a large, intricately carved wooden figure, which is skillfully maneuvered by an unseen handler, creating mesmerizing patterns and shapes in the sand. The Bedlington Terriers, known for their distinctive appearance and agile bodies, are eagerly anticipating their turn to participate in the ancient ritual. Their expressions are filled with excitement and curiosity as they watch the shadow dance, their tails wagging in anticipation. The scene is a delightful blend of history, tradition, and the natural beauty of the season, making it a truly enchanting moment in time. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a simpler era when community gatherings and local traditions held great significance. It is a poignant reminder of the importance of preserving our rich cultural heritage and the joy that can be found in the simple pleasures of life.
