  3. The Sun is setting behind the South Downs on what is to become a very cold frosty night! In the meantime a Class 450 Unit arrives from Portsmouth Harbour on its way to London Waterloo.

  4. This class of Diesel locomotives were built in the late 1950s/Early 1960s. This example 03 179 was based on the Isle of Wight for many years before leaving in 1996. Entering preservation and immaculately restored,it has returned to the Isle of Wight Steam Railway in 2025 for at least 10 x years.

  5. The Class A1 “Terriers” were designed by William Stroudly and built for the London Brighton and South Coast Railway (LBSCR) in the 1870s. Known for their diminutive size, distinctive exhaust and strength, several have entered preservation. This one spent a few bizarre years as a pub sign on the Mainland on Hayling Island!

  9. The Badshot Lea Goalkeeper dives in vain to save the ball entering the net. His face says it all and this was the first of six goals scored by Aldershot Town on a hot, sunny July afternoon. This was a “Pre -Season Friendly” fixture.

  10. Unfortunately the photographer didn’t record which vessel this was but it is either Wight Ryder I or Wight Ryder II on the 20:20 Portsmouth Harbour to Ryde Pier sailing. The Sun is setting on a hot day and the Solent is a perfect calm.

  11. It is almost 23:00 hrs and the Sun set almost 2 x hours previously. However the sky is still bright and the Sun below the horizon lights the clouds. This contrasts with the street lighting and house lighting in Hampshire, England.

  12. Most of the Hogmoor Inclosure in England is in early twilight, but a shaft of Sunlight still pitches in from the West from the low Sun. This phenomena occurs in a particular part of the forest due to the geography of the hills and building to the West and the slight incline of the path into the forest. If you were of such belief, you could think this is an entrance to an enchanted fairy kingdom!

  13. The MV Victoria of Wight sailing from Fishbourne to Portsmouth Gunwharf meets Wightlink Sister MV St Clare on the reverse sailing. The setting Sun, the perfect calm and the massive Fawley Oil Refinery to the right of MV St Clare provide the backdrop.

  14. Haven Street is a station on the preserved Isle of White Steam Railway. One of the (original) concrete station signs is seen here in festive attire with the Moon high above! On the former Southern Railway network in the UK there are still many examples of structures made with concrete at the famous, but now closed, Exmouth Junction works.

  18. The MV St Clare is on a late running sailing from Fishbourne on the Isle of Wight to Portsmouth Gunwharf. This view is towards the Island, on the Sun deck, and shows the superstructure of the “Bridge.”

  19. One of the two “Wight Ryder” Fastcats approaches Ryde Pier Head on the 10:15 sailing from Portsmouth Harbour. This shot was taken from the MV St Clare on a sailing from Portsmouth Gunwharf to Fishbourne.

  20. The Hanseatic Nature is a cruise ship operated by Hapag Lloyd. In this delightful shot, the Hanseatic Nature can be seen in the background with one of her tenders along side the quay ferrying passengers to and from the ship. This is Cowes on the Isle of Wight and the Hanseatic Nature will be on her way later to Guernsey.

  22. Royal Carribean’s “Independence of the Seas” passes and dwarfs “No Man’s Land Fort” in the Solent. It is sailing from Southampton to Bilbao and then around Spain before returning to Southampton in a few days time.

  23. Always a great view, and particularly after a long days work! It would be easy to remove the dock fence post and railings from the shot, but I think it gives depth to the image.

  24. I really thought the cloud swirls looked really good. I was going to crop the picture but thought ultimately the street light and house lighting added to the atmosphere. 🙂

  25. A South Western Railway service formed of Class 450 Desiro stock heads away from Petersfield towards Portsmouth with the South Downs in the distance on a beautiful late Spring evening. After a few miles, the train passes through a tunnel under the hill on the left.

  26. This bridge across the River Wey is very interesting as it once housed 2 x Waterwheels which powered an old iron foundry. The foundry ceased operating in the 19th Century and there is little evidence now apart from this bridge and its abutments. Some old iron ore “slag” can still be found around the site, though. This is located at Hammer, a village where the county boundaries of Surrey, West Sussex and Hampshire meet just outside Haslemere. The view is spoilt a bit by the water pipe crossing in front of the bridge (this is much more recent) and the author does not know where this pipe goes to or from.
