EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "On The Cobb DP196932" by James O. Davies takes us on a visual journey to the iconic Cobb harbour wall in Lyme Regis, West Dorset. Captured in silhouette against the backdrop of a September sunset in 2017, this image beautifully encapsulates the timeless charm and coastal allure of this historic seaside town. The composition focuses on the side of the Cobb harbour wall, which stands as a testament to centuries of maritime heritage. Its weathered stones bear witness to countless tales of fishermen's triumphs and tragedies, while its sturdy structure continues to protect the bustling harbor from the relentless waves of the sea. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to an idyllic scene where land meets water. The golden hues of dusk cast a warm glow over everything they touch – from the rugged stones that make up the pier to the tranquil waters stretching out into infinity. It is a moment frozen in time; one that invites us to contemplate our connection with nature and reflect on our place within it. James O. Davies' masterful capture not only showcases his artistic talent but also serves as a reminder of Lyme Regis' enduring appeal as both a tourist destination and a cherished local landmark. This print is more than just an image; it is an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in its beauty and let their imaginations wander along these storied shores.
