EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, the skipper of a small ferry boat patiently waits for passengers on the slipway at Marazion, a picturesque village nestled in the heart of Mounts Bay, Cornwall, England. The scene is set against the backdrop of the tranquil yet unpredictable expanse of the sea, its surface shimmering under the soft, overcast light of the late 1980s. The boat, a vital link to the mainland during high tide when the causeway to St. Michael's Mount is flooded, is a testament to the enduring resilience and resourcefulness of the coastal communities. The skipper, dressed in a worn, waterproof jacket and a sturdy pair of boots, stands with his hands in his pockets, his eyes scanning the horizon for signs of approaching passengers. The weight of responsibility rests heavily on his shoulders, as he is the sole guardian of their safety during the short yet perilous journey across the bay. The boat, a humble yet essential vessel, is a symbol of the unyielding power of nature and the indomitable spirit of those who live in harmony with it. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, where the rhythm of life was dictated by the ebb and flow of the tide. It is a poignant reminder of the simple pleasures and the inherent beauty of a world that has long since been overshadowed by the relentless march of progress. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, to an era where the connection between man and nature was not a mere abstract concept but a way of life.
