Spring sunset...
Ah yes the sun is moving across the sky once again. Above was the sunset in the last few days, and here it was on the shortest day - well and truly sunk behind the Hoy hills! Whoo Hoo Spring is here!
Sunrise in Orkney now is 05.58 (London 0605), and sunset time is 20.26 (London 1955). Bring on the daylight I say!

That's a beautiful way to start your day! I hope you enjoy every minute. Spring, indeed! The snow is gone from our yard, the sun is out. Joy!
ReplyDeleteWhoo Hoo hope you still have sunshine!
Deletespring here is so short. soon it will be our dry hot summer with nothing interesting to write about:)
ReplyDeleteI often wonder what it must be like to live somewhere that the weather changes so little. In the UK we often moan about the weather and it is always a topic of conversation - because it changes so much!
DeleteThe sun rising over the horizon after a long winter is a promise of sunshine:) Still there is a sense of mystery in your photos ... the darkness over the land and the skies showing the arrival of morning.
ReplyDeleteI love the edges of days, the dusk and dawn. Very atmospheric...
DeleteI've noticed how fast the days are lengthening up here in the 3 weeks since we got here. More sun would be good, but at least we have light. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the longer days!! Makes me very happy :-)
DeleteBeautiful sunset Sian!
ReplyDeleteAfter 6 l-o-n-g months of a very nasty Winter we finally have Spring! Our last snow storm was just a week ago (Apr.14th). It has finally melted & things are improving. WE have alot of clouds so not alot of sunsets yet.
Happy Spring to you there,
Sherri-Ellen & Nylablue too
Happy Spring! Enjoy!
