A peace offering to friends 🍫🍬 in this new social space ☺️
No walk up a #Shetland hill is complete without a sweet treat and a rejuvenating coastal view at the top ☺️ #MyFirstSkeet

For the penultimate weekend in the #UpHellyAa season in #Shetland it was glorious weather for the procession of 500 torches and galley burning in Cunningsburgh last night 🔥 And it’s always good to connect with friends in community halls across the South Mainland through the night 🚌🕺🍻🥳 #SMUHA

We’ve been blessed with clear skies day and night this last few days. Tonight we can enjoy this month’s #FullMoon - the #SnowMoon that rose behind #Lerwick Town Hall earlier. Away from the streetlights of town, the bright moonlight spills across the landscape and open sea 😎 #Shetland

Tonight, Hare would look up to her #SnowMoon contemplating all the new beginnings that were hers for the taking.
By morning, this potential would reveal itself, but for now, there was nothing to do but wait;
gaze upon the Moon and wait for the magic to start.

Shetland pony foals are born in May when we have near constant daylight and the hills are filled with wildflowers. I always wonder how winter must feel for them and imagine they are relieved when the days lengthen and the sun reappears #Shetland

The sky just exploded with colour above our Shetland house. One of the best displays I've seen. Many colours visible to the naked eye and it was dancing and flowing and changing constantly. Breathtaking! #AuroraBorealis #NorthLights #MirrieDancers #Shetland

The #NorthernLights are dancing over #Shetland 🤩 Always amazing to see and what a palette of colour tonight 🎨 #MirrieDancers #AuroraBorealis

It’s been a gloriously clear and windless winter day in #Shetland ☀️ With limited daylight, you have to take the chance to savour the low winter sun at midday ☺️ #Lerwick #JimmyPerez #Lifeat60North

Happy Sunday. Something a little different from me, I think the black and white works with this one :)

Had a walk out today at noon 🕛 and amused myself for a moment by creating possibly the longest shadow of the year? 🤩 At a rough guess, possibly 30 yards long 😯 #Shetland #WinterSolstice #Lifeat60North

Seven degrees 😯 At noon today, that’s all the sun rises above the horizon in #Shetland. May the walls of your #broch feel ever warmer with sun rising higher in the months ahead 😎 Happy #WinterSolstice 🌅 #WinterSolstice2024

Fading midday light at the museum by Hay’s Dock, Lerwick today. At noon 🕛 in December the sun is barely seven degrees above the horizon and there’s less than six hours of daylight in #Shetland 🌅 #LifeAt60North #WinterSolstice

For the record… There may be clear skies and low winter sun elsewhere but today #Shetland is the warmest place in the UK 🇬🇧🌡️ 🤗 It’s also the most driech ☔️ though I’m not sure the @metoffice.bsky.social keeps records of ‘dreichness’ 💦☺️
