Happy new year! I see I haven't posted anything here since last September, oops! However I do have work to share. I have been editing my way through the backlog of photographs this week so I can share new pieces here over the next couple of weeks.

I thought I'd start off the year with the last piece I completed in 2016. Warebeth is a beach just outside Stromness with old rock formations and dramatic views across to Hoy. I've only visited this beach twice before(!) but I definitely plan to make more return visits this year.
