Sky.....

Feathery clouds

There is a lot of sky around in Orkney with low lying land and wide horizons..... great at any time of year.  Here are a few sky pix from December!

Sun rising over Hoy


More feathery clouds (taken from the "main road" on Graemsay.


The MV Graemsay sailing round to the pier on a calm day just before Christmas


More feathery clouds over Hoy




A sunset.....




And OK there's not much sky in these.... But the sunset is reflecting on the Orphir hills



And a close up of the hills, and "home".




A wee bit blurry but the full moon rising behind Hoy High lighthouse, with a fire burning on the Orkney mainland, hence the black smoke to the left!
