EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, captured by Damian Grady, showcases the majestic Hastings Castle in East Sussex. The image provides a detailed plan of this medieval keep and bailey castle, perched dramatically on the cliffs overlooking the charming town below. Dating back to Norman times, this historic fortress has witnessed centuries of history unfold within its walls. However, the photo also serves as a poignant reminder of nature's power. In 1287, violent storms ravaged the area, causing portions of the castle to crumble into the unforgiving sea below. This tragic event forever altered the landscape surrounding Hastings Castle. Photographed in September 2015, Grady's lens captures not only an architectural marvel but also a testament to human resilience and adaptability. Despite enduring countless challenges over time, this formidable stronghold continues to stand proudly against both man-made and natural forces. The image invites viewers to appreciate both the grandeur and fragility inherent in historical landmarks such as Hastings Castle. It encourages us to reflect upon our own place within history and reminds us that even structures built with stone can be shaped by fleeting moments of nature's fury. Through his lens, Damian Grady immortalizes not just a physical structure but also conveys an emotional connection between past and present—a visual tribute to those who have walked these grounds before us while inspiring future generations with awe-inspiring tales from long ago.
