We have been really lucky with the weather in September, although the days are shorter they have generally been warm, dry and with little wind. Bliss. It makes Autumn/Winter more bearable for me when we have had a good long spell of reasonable (for Orkney!) weather.
The ferry sailing into Stromness from the Scottish mainland....
Beautiful skies.....
Hoy high light with part of the arch of a fog bow...... Below the full fog bow....
With the lighthouse disappearing beneath the bottom of the fog blow...
It's another grey day but it had been a while since I'd been to the shore with Button. I'm trying to get out in the fresh air each day while I can!
Button checking we are not being followed. She still searches for Charlie. He was the dominant cat and would chase her or beat her up so she's still wary....
The tide was well out...
Sunshine yesterday, but early last week it was grey skies. Still warm and NO WIND! Oh the joy! And not too many midges either! So here are a few random photos... Above the old lighthouse pier at Sandside at high tide. Looking over to Stromness.....
Creels on top of the lighthouse pier...
Old byres..... these were once lived in as a dwelling house but would then be repurposed as a byre for the cattle.
