SS Shieldhall and The Waverley passing The Needles

At the beginning of last week, talented local photographer Graham Wiffen captured photos of two historic steamships, the SS Shieldhall and The Waverley, as they passed the Needles a couple of days apart.

The pictures were taken from a far distance and the conditions were a bit murky, nevertheless, always a nice sight to see.
