The snow-clad @ShiantIsles looking like a dream-like apparition on the horizon.

A ghostly Eilean an Taighe of the @ShiantIsles this morning, in between wintry squalls. We don’t often see the Shiants cloaked in snow!

A tad windy today! Warning that 75mph gusts could hit parts of Scotland bbc.com/news/articles/…

@ShiantIsles Flying to Stornoway and spotted the Shiants! After reading Sea Room it's nice to see them.

Autumn on the Shiants ❤️

Proud the UK’s most remote parts sustain a functioning society, with a full-time nurse on Fair Isle. Remote care builds resilience; ingenuity and community courage keep health alive where the horizon ends. #Islands #Healthcare #UK

The beautifully silhouetted @ShiantIsles late yesterday, as the sun began to slide lower in the sky behind the Hebrides.

A lovely week on the Shiants comes to an end.... Lots of great memories with the gang and Little Summer.
