EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial shot showcases the iconic Happisburgh Lighthouse, standing tall against the picturesque coastal backdrop of Norfolk. The photographer, Damian Grady, has masterfully captured the essence of this historic landmark in a single frame. Bathed in warm sunlight, the lighthouse exudes an aura of resilience and strength as it overlooks the vast expanse of sea and beach. Dating back to 1790, Happisburgh Lighthouse holds a significant place in British maritime history. Its distinctive red and white stripes make it instantly recognizable from afar. Standing at an impressive height, it serves as a guiding beacon for ships navigating these treacherous waters. The composition also highlights another intriguing feature - a pillbox nestled amidst the sand dunes nearby. A relic from World War II, this concrete structure adds an element of intrigue to the scene while reminding us of Britain's wartime past. As we gaze upon this print by Historic England, we are transported to a serene moment where time seems to stand still. The tranquil beauty that surrounds Happisburgh Lighthouse is truly awe-inspiring; one can almost feel the gentle breeze caressing their face and hear waves crashing against the shore. Damian Grady's skillful lens has immortalized this enchanting sight for generations to come – serving as a reminder not only of our rich heritage but also our enduring connection with nature's wonders along our beloved coastline.
