The Grand Fleet at sea
A distant starboard bow view of the battleship HMS Neptune (1909) followed by her Division mate HMS Colossus (1910). Barely visible between these two ships are two more battleships of the St Vincent class. It is not possible to determine which is which, but these vessels are HMS Collingwood (1908) and HMS St Vincent (1908). The four ships were part of the 1st Battle Squadron's 5th Division.
