I love taking photos of the old boat ‘LIVELY’. Although it is sad to see a boat in this state of decay it has nevertheless developed real photogenic character. She can no longer live up to her name and is history in the nicest sense. I will be very sorry if she is ever removed from her present resting place.

Trying to use different settings on the camera (about time too). Here are a couple of panoramic views I’ve taken recently. One is of Foula and the other was taken at Hamnavoe, Shetland.

A fishing boat leaving Scalloway Harbour on a recent beautiful evening.

Saw some nice clouds behind the wind turbines so took a shot out of my bedroom window.  A gull swooped in, as they invariably do in Shetland, and completed the picture.

Was waiting on the pier at Dales Voe while my daughter tried a little fishing. The sky was all blue except for a few little clouds. Had taken my camera (of course) so snapped this little cloud and the pole.
