A photograph at sunset from the Far Point on Scolt Head Island showing the wreck of the SS Vina. The SS Vina was wrecked during the Second World War (1944?) whilst being towed into position for military target practice. The photograph was taken on 12th September 2006 at low-tide whilst surveying the spit features that constitute Far Point - the crest of one of these features can be seen in the foreground.
