EDITORS COMMENTS
Basking in the golden hues of sunset, The Lighthouse on Little Ross Island stands proudly against the backdrop of the tranquil Kirkcudbright Bay in Dumfries and Galloway, South West Scotland. Located in the picturesque Solway Firth, this historic lighthouse has been a beacon of safety and guidance for seafarers navigating the tidal waters of the Irish Sea since its construction in 1841. The lighthouse, which is situated off the coast of Stewartry and Kirkcudbrightshire, flashes intermittently, sending out a vital signal to ships and boats entering or leaving the bay. Its distinctive light, a testament to the region's rich maritime heritage, has been an essential part of the local community for over a century and a half. As the sun dips below the horizon, the lighthouse's flash becomes more frequent, casting an ethereal glow over the water. The tide ebbs and flows, revealing the intricate patterns of the tidal flats and creating a serene tableau that speaks to the ever-changing nature of the sea. This evocative image, captured in 2012 from Torrs Point, captures the essence of the Scottish coastline and the beauty of the natural world as it interacts with the man-made structures that have shaped it. The Lighthouse on Little Ross Island, a symbol of resilience and endurance, continues to stand as a testament to the power of nature and the human spirit.
