Dramatic pictures taken by an amateur photographer have given an unusual angle on the repainting of an East Yorkshire landmark.
Andy Medcalf took the pictures of work on Withernsea Lighthouse, which stands almost 130ft (39m) above the resort.
The octagonal Victorian building was once a working beacon for ships, but is now a museum and visitor attraction.
Mr Medcalf said: I was never nearer than about 10m, but the drone camera gives a magnification effect.
He said he knew the lighthouse was due to be painted and spoke in advance to the painters and staff at the lighthouse about his plan to photograph the work from on high.
