EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the essence of St Ives harbour in Cornwall during the 1970s. The scene is filled with the hustle and bustle of the fishing industry, as local boats, including the iconic Celtic Lass, are prepared for a day at sea. The boats, with their distinctive rubber tyres and chains, are nestled among the sandy shores, their masts reaching towards the clear blue sky. The buildings along the harbour's edge add character and charm to the scene, with their whitewashed walls and red-tiled roofs. The atmosphere is one of productivity and community, as the fishermen go about their daily business, preparing their catches for market. The summer sun casts a warm glow over the harbour, adding to the sense of tranquility and serenity. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich maritime history and traditions of St Ives and Cornwall, and transports us back to a simpler time.
