After weeks of Fog and low temps we have got some sunshine at last. Took the long way home after work. 10 miles of lovely scenery and windy roads. Shetland is a different place when the sun is shining.

There was someone on here a few years ago who's home run was short 7 miles or brilliant 30 miles on the IOM TT course .
I think I would be arriving home late most days :D

I think it's not so much the scenery (although obviously that's a help!) but the quality of the light you have up there that gives the game away. I've noticed it every time I've been up Scotland way, and you can see it in many photos of the region. Clear, sharp and something indefinable. Makes for good photography.

That'll be the lack of smog then :rollin
What you gotta experience too the further north you go is the amount of light too.. havn't done Shetland yet but high summer in Orkney it never gets totally dark.. still bright daylight up to 11pm and then only a twilight after that.. I imagine Shetlands even better for that..

Cloud formations often very striking too - 'cept when it's pissing down! :lol

Aye, sorry, that was not very clear in the wording. I am from Scotland (Glasgow), I was meaning I have never been to Shetland. I know what you mean though Nick. When it is a nice clear day, it is very clear. But I have also been in fog so dense you really could not see your shoes! Not such great photographs then :lol

The panoramic picture is taken in the Trossachs. Not very mountainous and quite touristy, but its only 20 minutes from Glasgow and a nice wee jolly if I have an hour to spare.
