EDITORS COMMENTS
Amidst the rolling hills and vast expanses of Dartmoor National Park in Devon, England, a mother Dartmoor pony gently grazes in a lush, emerald-green field with her newborn foal at her side. The tranquil scene, reminiscent of a bygone era, transports us back to the 1960s. The West Country landscape, dotted with granite tors and ancient ruins, serves as the perfect backdrop for these hardy ponies, which have roamed these lands for centuries. Dartmoor ponies are a native breed, renowned for their strength, agility, and resilience. They have adapted to the challenging terrain and harsh weather conditions of Dartmoor, making them well-suited to the rugged environment. The mother's coat, thick and coarse, protects her from the elements, while her foal's soft, downy fur keeps it warm in the early days of its life. This heartwarming photograph captures the bond between mother and foal, a testament to the strong connection they share. The foal, still young and vulnerable, looks up to its mother for guidance and protection. The mother, in turn, nurtures and cares for her offspring, ensuring its survival in the wild. As we gaze upon this idyllic scene, we are reminded of the rich history and natural beauty of Dartmoor and the ponies that call it home. This photograph is not only a beautiful work of art but also a glimpse into the past, a moment frozen in time that invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures of rural life.
