EDITORS COMMENTS
In this black-and-white photograph, Andrew Besley, a talented and dedicated photographer, is seen in the picturesque landscape of Cornwall, England, in the 1960s. With a determined expression on his face, Besley focuses intently on the viewfinder of his Pentax 6x7 camera, adjusting the lens with a deft hand. His shirtsleeves are rolled up, revealing forearms tanned from long days spent outdoors, capturing the essence of the Cornish West Country. A watch peeks out from beneath the cuff of his left sleeve, reminding us of the fleeting nature of time. Besley's passion for photography is evident in the way he holds the camera, as if it were an extension of himself. The Pentax 6x7, a professional-grade medium format camera, sits comfortably in his hands, a testament to his skill and expertise. The image transports us back to an era when photography was a more intimate and artisanal pursuit, before the digital age transformed the medium. Andrew Besley's love for photography began in his youth, and he went on to make a career out of his passion. His work has been celebrated for its ability to capture the beauty and character of Cornwall and its people. This photograph, taken in the 1960s, is a poignant reminder of the enduring connection between the photographer and his craft, as well as the timeless allure of the Cornish landscape. This evocative image is a must-have for anyone with an appreciation for photography, history, and the natural beauty of Cornwall. It is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the life and work of a dedicated and talented photographer in action.
