Thank you Thomas.

For those of you into the BBC show "Sherlock", the church in the last picture is where Benedict Cumberbatch got married.

Simone, thanks for sharing and happy new year!

I've known about the Isle of Wight only as the site for the rock festival that saw the historical performance of Jimi Hendrix.

I do love rock but enjoy your images that conveys a lot quieter atmosphere.  :)
