A vision of Stromness

Stromness on the Orkney Islands is the setting for this colourful view. Taken fom the Orkney -Scrabster ferry: Hamnavoe.

Having just been reminded of my visit to this wonderful Island, I thought you might like an re-airing of this rather artful interpretation of the famous little harbour town here.

Posted here in the NC500 group as many travellers of that route make the short ferry detour to Orkney too.

Enjoy full screen on black.

A fitting tribute in sound: Fairwell to Stromness music best listened to whilst viewing this full screen.

Another visit another great reflection from you here. This place was a wonder and I was so pleased to capture it like this, although my seascape shots sailing into Stromness were exciting too. I have never gone as far as the Shetlands and I must admit that it does not look quite as exciting as this but... Like you, I have many photos done in print only -now languishing in faded colours. I think some times, perhaps I should scan some of the many negatives that I still posses. Anyway -glad you liked it.
Best Wishes, Herb

You create quite a dramatic undertone to the composition, a nod towards stormier times perhaps... A splendid shot!
