This photograph taken in February looks due north and is taken from the ridgeway that follows this part of the chalk hills that run east west across the Isle of Wight. The main feature in the photograph is the dry chalk valley with Duxmore Farm in the middle distance centre right. On the horizon is the River Solent, some 7km distant.
