Solomon Islands In the 70s

These images was given to me by Isaac Newton a sailor aboard the HMS Minerva a Royal Navy Leander class frigate, that sailed the globe and eventually finding its way to the Isles of Solomon in the 1970s. It depicts the beauties of the past as no one sees it, and brings us back in time when we will learn to become independent of our neighbours. It tells of times immemorable.
