After yesterday’s entry – tulips in April – I’ve also added a second photo to the National Trust competition.
This one was taken on my recent holiday in Cornwall. What it shows is the beam of the working beam engine at Cornish Mines and Engines at Cambourne. In the periphery, modern day Cambourne can seen – built on the site of what used to be a major Cornish tin mine. The casting on the side of the beam and the traditional Cornish flag place let the viewer know exactly where they are, what they’re seeing and the history that comes with it.
As yesterday, if you like the image click here to vote.
