  Photographer Rob Beighton presents a magnificent selection of photographs of North Cornwall through the seasons, an area that boasts some of the most spectacular scenery in the British Isles, coupled with the most romantic history and traditions. Among the key locations on the coast are St. Ives, voted Britain's Best Seaside Town by the Guardian in 2007; Newquay, now a major tourist and surfing destination; Padstow, a fishing village that has become a high-profile resort, yet maintains its yearly pagan festivals; Tintagel, with its dramatically situated thirteenth-century castle, said to be the birthplace of King Arthur; and Boscastle, a picturesque village with a dramatic natural harbour.
