EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures a moment of pure joy and relaxation from the Edwardian era, as a group of happy boaters eagerly await the opening of the locks at Bourne End in Buckinghamshire on the picturesque River Thames. Dressed in their Sunday best, the boaters exude a sense of contentment and camaraderie as they take a break from their leisurely rowing pasture. The tranquil summer scene is a testament to the enduring appeal of boating as a beloved pastime in Britain, with the gentle lapping of the water against the banks adding to the idyllic atmosphere. The year is 1909, and the Edwardian era's elegant and refined sensibilities are on full display. The boaters, with their straw boaters and crisp collars, embody the spirit of fun and relaxation that defined this era. The scene is further enhanced by the beautiful, sunlit landscape, with the lush greenery and picturesque cottages along the riverbank adding to the pastoral charm. Bourne End, located in Buckinghamshire, was a popular destination for day-trippers and weekend visitors seeking respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. The opening of the locks marked the beginning of a new leg of their journey, allowing them to continue exploring the winding River Thames and its scenic beauty. This photograph is a timeless reminder of the simple pleasures of a lazy summer day spent on the river, surrounded by nature and good company.
