Continuing my tour of the British Isles, I include below some of my sketches and photographs of The Isle of Man …

Above and below are five of my sketches resulting from my visit to the Isle of Man in 1999. Titles will appear as you hover your mouse pointer over the picture. Larger versions of these can be seen by clicking on any one of them . . .
… and here are nine of my photographs to give a better view of some of the island’s special places . . .
