EDITORS COMMENTS
St. Michaels Mount, Cornwall, England: A Timeless Journey Across the Tidal Sea This photograph, first published in The Sunday Times in 1988, immortalizes the enchanting moment when the small ferry departs from the Marazion slip on the mainland of Cornwall, England, as the tide turns to high water. The tranquil scene is a testament to the enduring allure of St. Michaels Mount, an island castle nestled in the English Channel. The island, with its medieval castle and subtropical gardens, has long been a source of fascination for visitors and locals alike. The tidal causeway, which connects the island to the mainland, is a natural wonder that transforms with the ebb and flow of the sea. During low tide, the causeway is exposed, allowing visitors to walk across it to the island. However, as the tide rises, the causeway is submerged, and the only means of transportation becomes the small ferry, adding an element of adventure to the journey. The photograph, taken by the renowned British photographer Philip Dunn, captures the essence of this unique and magical place. The island, shrouded in mist and mystery, stands proudly against the backdrop of the vast and ever-changing sea. The small ferry, with its simple yet sturdy design, adds to the sense of tradition and history that surrounds St. Michaels Mount. This photograph is a reminder of the beauty and power of nature, and the enduring allure of the Cornish coast. It invites us to take a moment to appreciate the simple pleasures of life and the wonders that lie just beyond our doorstep.
