EDITORS COMMENTS
Basking in the soft glow of twilight, Southwold Lighthouse stands proudly against the backdrop of an encroaching night. Located in the quaint seaside town of Southwold in Suffolk, England, this iconic landmark has been a beacon of safety and guidance for mariners since its construction in 1891. As the sun sets and the sky transforms into a canvas of vibrant hues, the lighthouse casts an ethereal aura, its white tower starkly contrasting against the deepening blues of the evening sky. The tranquil waters of the North Sea gently lap against the shore, creating a soothing symphony of waves that echoes the rhythm of the passing hours. The hustle and bustle of daily life continues unabated, with the occasional car or van making its way along the narrow coastal road, their headlights cutting through the gathering darkness. The lighthouse, a constant sentinel, remains undeterred, its powerful beam piercing the night, a silent guardian to those who venture out to sea. This evocative scene, captured by the skilled lens of Alun Bull, encapsulates the essence of Southwold and its lighthouse - a timeless symbol of resilience, beauty, and the enduring power of nature. The image invites us to pause, to reflect, and to appreciate the simple pleasures of life, as we bear witness to the ever-changing tapestry of the natural world.
