EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the quaint village of Little Petherick in Cornwall, capturing a serene moment frozen in time. Taken by the talented photographer Charles Woolf in 1968, this image offers a mesmerizing view along the village street from the Padstow side. As we gaze upon this picturesque scene, our eyes are immediately drawn to the charming church nestled on the left-hand side. Its ancient stone walls stand tall and proud, exuding an air of tranquility that seems to permeate throughout the entire village. Beyond it, rolling fields stretch into the distance, painting a vivid tapestry of green hues against an endless sky. The true essence of rural life is beautifully encapsulated within this photograph. The houses lining both sides of the street tell stories of generations past - their weathered facades whispering tales of Cornish heritage and community spirit. One can almost imagine children playing freely on these very streets while locals engage in friendly conversations over white picket fences. In its simplicity lies its beauty; there are no bustling crowds or modern distractions here. Instead, this image invites us to embrace a slower pace and appreciate life's simple pleasures amidst nature's bountiful offerings. Woolf's skillful composition captures not only a snapshot in time but also evokes feelings of nostalgia and warmth within our hearts. This print serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst rapid change and progress, there will always be pockets of serenity where tradition thrives and natural beauty reigns
