It is often said that a good photograph should leap out of the page at you. Some time ago, I was walking past a shop and stopped when I saw a series of 3 photographs on display in the window. On this occasion they leapt right out of the shop at me. They were of a French lighthouse called "Le Four." The first showed a wave hitting the far side of the lighthouse with such force that the breaker almost reached the top. In the second, it had reached the top and was coming round both sides. In the final photograph, the lighthouse was under a cloak of white water and gone from view. Those photographs are reproduced in this book and are just 3 of a collection of truly outstanding images.
I cannot imagine what it must have cost to produce this book or why the co-authors should have tackled a subject as esoteric as lighthouses, but I am glad they did. Being a diver, a number of those lighthouses are very well known to me.
The reason I mention cost, is that all 166 lighthouses featured in this book have been photographed from the air - often with more than one image. Commencing with British lighthouses as far north as the Orkney Islands, the book brings the reader southwards, lighthouse by lighthouse (including lightships) along the Atlantic-facing coastlines of Scotland, Northern Ireland, Isle of Man, Ireland England, France and the Iberian Peninsula - all the way to Gibraltar.
All the favourites are there, mine as well as yours. There are plenty of curious photographs - like the deckchair where the light used to be, plus a number of mood photographs, like the light shining through the mist. There is not a single poor photograph in this book anywhere.
An outstanding book of photographs by any standards whatsoever.
Also published in English as "Lighthouses of Europe."
