EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the serene beauty of the Church of St. Ethelburga in Millington, East Yorkshire during a winter snowfall. As footprints lead towards the church through the untouched white blanket, one can't help but be drawn into this rural Victorian scene. The Grade II listed churchyard is adorned with headstones that stand as silent witnesses to generations past. The play of light and shadow creates an ethereal atmosphere, casting a sense of tranquility over the entire landscape. The bellcote and buttresses of this charming church stand tall against the backdrop of towering trees, their branches delicately dusted with snowflakes. It's a testament to both nature's resilience and man's devotion that even in winter's grip, faith endures. Les Waby skillfully captures not only the architectural details but also the emotions evoked by this sacred place. Through his lens, we are transported to a time when life moved at a slower pace and spirituality was deeply intertwined with everyday existence. This photograph serves as a reminder that amidst our modern lives filled with distractions, there are still places where one can find solace and connect with something greater than ourselves - whether it be through religion or simply appreciating the beauty found in nature's delicate brushstrokes on a snowy day.
