EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial shot captures the timeless beauty of Withernsea Lighthouse, standing tall against the backdrop of East Riding of Yorkshire. The photographer, Dave MacLeod, skillfully frames this iconic landmark in a way that highlights its architectural grandeur and historical significance. Withernsea Lighthouse has long been a symbol of maritime heritage in this coastal town. Built in 1894, it has faithfully guided countless ships to safety over the years. Its striking red and white stripes make it instantly recognizable, even from high above. The print showcases the lighthouse's commanding presence as it stands proudly at the edge of the rugged coastline. The surrounding landscape is bathed in soft sunlight, casting a warm glow on both land and sea. It evokes a sense of tranquility and nostalgia for simpler times when lighthouses were essential beacons guiding sailors home. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of the rich history embedded within these weathered walls. Each brick tells a story; each beam holds memories of brave keepers who tended to its light through stormy nights. Dave MacLeod's photograph serves as an exquisite reminder that some things remain constant amidst ever-changing tides. Withernsea Lighthouse continues to stand strong as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience—a beacon not only for ships but also for those seeking solace along their own journey through life's unpredictable seas.
