EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting photograph, taken in the picturesque village of Withypool in Somerset's Exmoor National Park, three riders and their horses gracefully make their way through the crystal-clear waters of the River Barle. The idyllic scene transports us back in time to the 20th century, where the simple pleasures of rural life were cherished. The horses, with their glossy coats and alert expressions, wade confidently through the shallow water, their riders expertly guiding them over the uneven riverbed. The riders, dressed in traditional riding attire, appear at ease as they navigate the gentle current, their focus on the beauty of their surroundings. The stone bridge arching over the river adds to the historical charm of the scene, its whitewashed walls reflecting the clear blue sky above. The trees lining the banks of the river frame the image perfectly, their vibrant green leaves contrasting with the cool, clear water. In the background, the rolling hills of Exmoor rise up, their verdant slopes dotted with whitewashed cottages and stone buildings. The peaceful scene is a testament to the rich history and natural beauty of this rural area, which continues to draw visitors from around the world. This photograph captures the essence of the west country, with its stunning landscapes, quaint villages, and deep-rooted connection to the land and its traditions. It is a reminder of the simple pleasures of rural life and the enduring beauty of nature.
