It is 05:30 in the morning and Dawn is breaking in Ryde on the Isle of Wight. Looking towards Ryde St John’s Road from the Ryde Tunnel exit, the “Distant” signal helps guard the approach to Ryde St John’s Road. The train service will not be commencing on this Sunday morning for nearly another hour.© fuggletim

Powerful image! -
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.

Fastcat Docking at Ryde Pier
Fuggletim commented on Fuggletim's gallery image in Ships, boats and life at sea
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. -
The Flickering Embers of the Day
Fuggletim commented on Fuggletim's gallery image in Sunsets, sunrises, clouds and the sky
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. 🙂 -

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.

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!

The Flickering Embers of the Day
Fuggletim posted a gallery image in Sunsets, sunrises, clouds and the sky
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.© Fuggletim
