The talented photographer Herbert Hughes has masterfully captured a moment frozen in time. Transport yourself to an era where cornish culture thrived and sailing was a way of life. The image showcases an array of boats gracefully floating on the tranquil waters, their sails billowing against the backdrop of charming cottages and ancient stone walls. It is a scene that evokes nostalgia for simpler times when rowing was not just a sport but an essential means of transportation. As you explore every detail within this remarkable photograph, let your imagination wander through the bustling streets filled with locals going about their daily lives.
