Victory Under Ophelia's Sky
Victory Under Ophelia's Sky
The orange yellow cast on this photograph was due to Saharan sand and smoke from Portuguese forest fires being sucked into the troposphere by the tail end of Hurricane Ophelia. Behind HMS Victory is HMS Queen Elizabeth the biggest ship ever built for the Royal Navy. She is currently undergoing sea trials and shore tests before being commissioned.
