EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of St Ives, a charming Cornish fishing village and seaside resort, during the 1970s. The sandy beach is dotted with colorful fishing boats, their masts and chains creating a striking contrast against the blue sky and the calm sea. In the foreground, a horse and cart are loaded with crates, adding to the rustic charm of the scene. The boats, named "Lamorna" and "Girl Renee," are typical of the traditional Cornish fishing fleet. The fishermen, who have made their living from the sea for generations, can be seen tending to their boats, preparing for another day of work. The peaceful atmosphere of the harbor is a testament to the enduring connection between the people of St Ives and the sea. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich fishing industry and the simple pleasures of a bygone era.
