Orkney in Winter

Still busy with work, so here is a wee Youtube Interlude to keep you amused!  I may have shared this before (it was filmed last winter), but I love it and think it's worth sharing again!  The first shot of the film shows Hoy High lighthouse on Graemsay with Sandside chimneys visible to the far right in the same shot. The rest of the film is taken on the Orkney Mainland and shows the stone circles of the Ring of Brodgar and the Stones of Stenness, as well as the towns of Stromness and Kirkwall. (The song is Saylon Dola by Chamelon)

    Thanks for this, Sian. I wasn't around in blogland last winter, so missed it then. Seeing it shows very clearly why you suffer when the wind blows. On the wall I have a print of a lovely pastel drawing of the the Ring of Brodgar, done by my artistic sister when she lived in Orkney.

    Strange to see the standing stones in the snow.

    That is beautiful. Sometimes I forget how lucky I am to live here and then something like that reminds me.
