A Bit of a Breeze

A windy day in Shetland. These are the high cliffs at Eshaness where the Atlantic Ocean crashes against them. Very dramatic.

Lerwick Shetland Isles

This is from one of the piers in Lerwick facing south. The buildings on the right are called Lodberries. This word comes from Old Norse meaning a place where boats can come alongside. These buildings were built in 18th century and are still inhabited today. The wind can be seen on water. It was a very windy day with gale force winds which nearly landed me in the sea.
