Sandlodge, Shetland

Its so good to live so close to the sea and Sandsayre is about 2 mins away on the eastside


I have just finished a 3 day photography tour for a couple from Australia, they were very impressed with Shetland and had some great weather
Shetland is getting a lot of visitors at present with three cruise liners most days and lots of yachts


Why go abroad when you can come to Shetland, so much to see and experience
We are heading south for a break soon, we always say we have 50 weeks holiday and 2 weeks south


A view from the top of our road looking over Sandlodge and over to Mousa




 Still got some Shetland Puffin books if you are interested - £14 +£4.75pp (UK) just drop me a line

Winter down at Leebitton , Sandwick, Shetland

Being so close to Sandlodge at Leebitton in Sandwick its good to be able to photograph the same place at different times

We have had a lot of stormy weather and if the wind comes from the east Sandsayre gets battered. I got drenched on this occasion


The virus is again making an impact with cases going up most days in Shetland. The advice of staying close to home is not a bad thing. It contains the virus and it gives you chance to explore familiar local areas in more depth (Exercise period)


While some people will ignore this advice putting others at risk its the most sensible thing to do. Once we have had the jab and reduced contact with others, for now, things will start to get back to normal


Still looking for a pot of gold
 
Plenty of splish, splash and splosh to keep me busy
