EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the determination and camaraderie of long-distance swimmers as they brave the chilly waters of St Ives, Cornwall in the 1980s. The scene is set against the picturesque backdrop of the Cornish coastline, with its iconic church tower and quaint buildings, as the swimmers prepare to take the plunge. Dressed in trunks and goggles, they smear themselves with a thick layer of grease to protect against the cold, creating a striking contrast against their tanned skin and the dark waters of the sea. The swimmers' focused expressions and determined postures convey a sense of adventure and resilience, as they embrace the challenges of the open water. The photograph captures the essence of a summer's day at the seaside, with the sun casting long shadows on the sandy beach and the sound of the waves crashing against the shore in the background. This timeless image is a testament to the enduring appeal of the sea and the human spirit, and is a must-have for anyone who loves the coast or the thrill of a long-distance swim.
