Today is the longest day of the year. Sunrise was at 4am.and sunset will be at 22.30. However it's been fairly cloudy today though the sun did break through a little this afternoon. So no summer solstice picture of sun for you today. Instead you will have to make do with some taking during the month of June. I love watching the sunset from the conservatory windows. Sunrise I am less familiar with, NOT being a morning person, so the solitary picture I took of sunrise and posted last week is it!
Um yes all these were taken from outside the "back door" of the house. I'm too darned lazy to walk too far even for a sunset photo!
I love it when it is slightly misty too. The sunset looks ethereal
The photos are beautiful. Absolutely magic.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed them :-) And thanks for taking the time to comment!
DeleteGreat solstice sunsets !
ReplyDeleteI'd love to visit the Orkney islands.
Sian, I hope you don't mind I used one of your photos. Just tell me if you do.
Have a nice summer !
No I'm happy to share my photos. Though if you are selling them for vast profit do send me a cheque. Hee hee only joking!! I'm delighted that you lime our wee island landscape enough to share around.
DeleteWell, as a small retribution let me show you a post I made about St. Margaret's Hope:

I've never been there, it's out of reach for me. I just like to visit "online" those places I'll never be able to travel to. Thank you so much for your blog.
I am happy today. It is the first day of days getting shorter.
ReplyDeleteOK, that's it. I'm sending you to your room without any supper missy!! How DARE you speak such treason.... the days will NOT get shorter because I am tethering the sun just off Graemsay, forevermore.... so there!
