welcome
I hope that you all had a chance to visit the seaside over the summer once lockdown was eased. For those who couldn’t, as I know there many people still staying at home to protect their health, I sincerely hope that coast magazine has given you the salty taste of the ocean, and helped you to feel connected to the sea and all that you love about coastal life. As you know, our coastline isn’t just a place to visit, it’s also brimming with creative talent inspired by the power and beauty of the sea. In this issue we see the coast through the eyes of a range of artists, spanning from the stunning drone photography by Vincent Howcutt (page 44) to the delicate and evocative drawings of the Jurassic Coast…

bird’s eye view
Compass Cove on the Little Dartmouth footpath is a rugged scrap of a beach in the South Hams district in South Devon. Designer and photographer Vincent Howcutt took this striking aerial shot during lockdown as part of his This Wild Project, featuring drone photography of the coastal region during a unique time for nature. ‘Compass Cove is on the coast path looked after by the National Trust. There was a landslide earlier in the year that meant a lot of foliage had grown over, giving it a remote, rewilded look,’ he says. He flew his drone camera above the cliffs to capture the raw beauty below. See more of his drone images on page 44.
