An opportunity for me (and others) to post photos depicting the lovely county of Hampshire.
Please feel free to add images of the county.
It's also an opportunity for others to start a "My <insert your local county name here>" thread and post flattering photos.
It would be helpful to give a description of where the photo was taken. That way, if it looks nice, we can cycle there.
Woods between Wherwell and Longparish.

After seeing the photo's from Nikki's Test Valley Pootle camping weekend, the area is on my to-do list.

A couple of the Basingstoke Canal

and one taken from 27 metres above where the Greywell Tunnel would be if it hadn't collapsed, thereby scuppering the chances of extending the restoration of the Basingstoke Canal as far as Basingstoke.

Oh, well there's an oversight! I don't seem to have very many photos of my 'ampshire to hand at all!
