  2. P&O Cruise Liner “Iona” sails from Southampton to Norway. The stormy sky the oil refinery at Fawley give a dramatic backdrop.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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 past 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!

  6. It is almost 23:00 hrs and the Sun set almost 2 x hours previously. However tge 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.

  7. The sun sets on a hot mid summer’s day at Portsmouth Harbour creating a wonderful scenic photograph of preserved HMS Warrior. The author was travelling for work on the Isle of Wight the following day with the usual 2 x hour journey taking nearly 5 and a half hours due to substantial issues on the trains!

  10. A wonderfully atmospheric view in the Spring sunshine of Ryde Esplanade where Class 484 has just arrived from Ryde Pier Head. In the background can be seen the landmark “All Saints” Church.

  11. 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.

  12. A Class 450 South Western Railway Desiro passes the River Wey water meadows at Godalming, Surrey on the way to Portsmouth.

  13. Town Bridge spans the River Wey in Godalming, a town in Surrey, England. Taken on a bright, sunny, but cold Springtime afternoon. The River Wey rises as the South Wey in nearby Haslemere, and the North Wey at Alton in Hampshire. They merge at Tilford in Surrey and flow ultimately into the River Thames at Weybridge.

  14. 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.

  15. The football at Badshot Lea may have been uninspiring, but this lovely ladybird makes for a pleasant distraction!,

  24. Pictured at Fremantle Station in Western Australia, the above train is about to depart to Perth. These units bear a family resemblance to the Class 701 Units (and cousins) in the UK, which isn’t really a surprise as they are manufactured by Bombadier and Downer Rail. The UK units are a Bombadier design!
