Kirkwall Harbour in Orkney on a calm day in June 2018 as the tide was ebbing. Busy with fishing and other work boats setting out to sea via Wide Firth, and home to leisure craft like the yachts with tall masts and rigging that were reflected in the mirror-like surface of the water. The entire area is encircled with large boulders that have been imported from island sources to act as a barrier to coastal erosion of the low lying shore.
Beautiful pics! Would love to visit someday! Thanks for sharing 🙂
I love seeing all that sky in the water.
Thank you, Emma. Kirkwall and Orkney are well worth a visit.
Thank you, Jean. The water was dead calm that morning – which was a surprise after the severe weather of Storm Hector a few days earlier.
