This unique aerial composition offers a dramatic overhead perspective of the iconic Herd Groyne Lighthouse in South Shields, casting a long, distinct shadow over the waters of the River Tyne. Constructed in 1882, the lighthouse's bright red structure has long served as a guiding light for ships navigating the busy Tyne estuary. From above, its geometric form and vivid colour are accentuated against the textured ground and shimmering river, creating a striking contrast.
The photograph captures the interplay of light and structure, with the elongated shadow stretching deep into the river, adding both depth and intrigue. It's an artistic, almost abstract view of one of the North East’s most recognisable maritime landmarks.
