An area of riverside industry that hasn't succumbed to the trend of conversion to housing. Taken on the first day of the decade, I wonder if the industry will still be there in 10 years.

Photograph taken from the north side of the Itchen Bridge. This is an ideal vantage point from which to study the city, river, and industry. The River Itchen joins Southampton Water to the east of the city, and about 0.75 mile (1.2 kilometre) down stream of this location. Note the variety of boats, moored in the foreground.

The River Itchen joins Southampton Water to the east of the city, and about 0.75 mile (1.2 kilometre) down stream of this location. The variety of ageing boats, moored on this side of the river, contrasts well with the modern cruisers which are moored close to the opposite bank.

The new(ish) stadium does not appear to sit well, beside the concrete plant, and gasworks. At the opposite end of the size scale, is the man paddling his kayak.
