EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial shot captures the majestic Camber Castle, a formidable Tudor fortress nestled in Rye, East Sussex. Built during the reign of Henry VIII as a strategic defense against potential invasions, this historic device fort served to safeguard not only the bustling port of Rye but also the nearby harbour at Winchelsea and the vital Camber anchorage. Once perched on a headland overlooking these crucial waterways, time and nature have conspired to shift its location inland due to relentless silting. Nevertheless, its imposing presence remains undiminished. Renowned photographer Damian Grady skillfully brings out every intricate detail of this architectural marvel through his lens. The print showcases the castle's robust artillery towers and sturdy walls that once housed powerful cannons ready for battle. Its rich history is palpable in every stone and brick that make up this magnificent structure. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era where castles stood as symbols of strength and resilience. This photograph serves as a testament to both our enduring fascination with Tudor architecture and our collective desire to preserve our heritage for future generations. Let us cherish such remarkable snapshots that allow us to appreciate not just their aesthetic beauty but also their historical significance - reminding us of how far we've come while honoring those who came before us.
