EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the medieval era as we witness an exhilarating Jousting Tournament taking place at St Erth, near Hayle, in beautiful Cornwall during the 1970s. The atmosphere is electric as two brave jousters prepare for the ultimate challenge, donning their colorful costumes and helmets adorned with heraldic symbols. The first rider wears a helmet with a fleur-de-lis insignia, while the second proudly displays a lion emblem. The lush grassy field, dotted with flags and banners, sets the scene for this authentic medieval spectacle. The horses, as proud and powerful as their riders, stand ready, their muscles tensed, their eyes focused on the target ahead. The air is filled with the sound of clashing metal and the roar of the crowd as the jousters charge towards each other, their lances poised to strike. The competition is fierce, but the spirit of camaraderie and fun is evident as the riders engage in this thrilling and historical sport. The crowd, a mix of locals and visitors, watches in awe, their faces painted with excitement and anticipation. The costumes, reminiscent of the Middle Ages, add to the authenticity of the event, transporting us back in time. The Jousting Tournament at St Erth is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Cornwall, a place where the past comes alive and the present is infused with a touch of the medieval. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, a moment frozen in time, and a reminder of the joy and excitement that comes from participating in and witnessing traditional sports and activities.
