NL2H0869.jpg A surprising amount of 18th century Lerwick is still there. North of the small boat harbour you begin to see vessels that can (and do) go out in anything the North Sea has to offer. NL2H0848.jpg
This beautiful double ended launch surprised me as I was setting up the shot of 'Swan' (the ketch in the background). NL2H0877.jpg NL2H0879.jpg Lerwick's R.N.L.I. Lifeboat.  (If you're going out in a hard chance, this is the boat to do it in.)

Noss Greeting Noss!  (View in Original size and move around...) Gannets on the Noss Cliffs ... and more Gannets.
Teenagers, still near the nests Gannets (twenty thousand at last count) inhabit Noss' eastern cliffs in September. NL2H1251.jpg NL2H1255.jpg
