I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and is continuing to enjoy the festive period.  Due to Camera Centre commitments I have not had too many posts during December.  The image above was taken on  my way to work one day overlooking Gulberwick.  It’s amazing the variety of skies experienced as I drive over the hill from Scalloway to Lerwick each day.

Stone Building, Hoy, Orkney

The image above is another from my holiday in Orkney in the summer.  This particular photograph was taken in Hoy.  I liked the colours and textures of the stone building contrasting with the dramatic background.

The first image I posted in my Orkney collection can be viewed here.

Rackwick, Hoy, Orkney

We enjoyed a very enjoyable few days in Orkney this summer.  It was my first time in Orkney and I will definitely be going back for another visit soon.   I was quite surprised how different it is to Shetland.

One highlight of the trip was our trip to Hoy.  The name Hoy derives from Norse Háey meaning high island.  Hoy has a population of 272 with Lyness being the main settlement area where there is an excellent visitor centre.

The picture above was taken at Rackwick which, as you can see, is a simply stunning place with its spectacular cliffs. 

More photos from Orkney to come.

This photograph was taken in Scalloway.  The low frozen fog was very dramatic which is visible in the image.

Sunset over Lerwick

Pictured above is an image from the Knab looking towards the south end of Lerwick.  The sky was very dramatic which drew me to the shot.  I hope you enjoy.
