A Shetland month.
Reporting Days: 30
Location: Shetland
Distance Walked: 203 km
Distance Driven: 1297 km
Photographs Taken: Thousands, mostly weather or wave related
At this time of year outdoor activities on Shetland are dominated by two things: the (variability of the) weather and the (lack of) daylight.
It is however still possible to find some weather windows most days and when the sun comes out it is so low in the sky that it is always the 'golden hour'. And I guess it's inevitable that the photographed story of a winter month on Shetland is going paint a positive picture of a month which did have it's fair share of storm days too.
These ten pictures were all taken on different November days, and all (with the exception of the Lerwick picture) were taken around the south end of the Shetland mainland.
