EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by James Davies showcases the St. Breock Downs Monolith K021457, a remarkable testament to Cornwall's rich prehistoric heritage. Standing tall against the vast expanse of the landscape, this ancient stone monument stands as a silent witness to centuries gone by. In this general view captured by Davies, we are presented with an intriguing juxtaposition between the monolith and a modern wind turbine in the background. This image serves as a powerful reminder of our ever-evolving relationship with renewable energy sources and our commitment towards sustainable practices. The presence of the wind farm adds an interesting layer to this photograph, symbolizing progress and innovation in harnessing natural resources for electricity generation. It highlights how humanity has come full circle in utilizing renewable energy solutions that echo back to ancient times when stones like these were erected with reverence for nature's power. Davies' composition beautifully encapsulates both environmental consciousness and historical significance within one frame. The convergence of past and present invites contemplation on our responsibility towards preserving our planet while embracing technological advancements that can coexist harmoniously with nature. Through his lens, James Davies captures not just a moment frozen in time but also sparks curiosity about how we can draw inspiration from history to shape a more sustainable future.
