It’s been a gloriously clear and windless winter day in #Shetland ☀️ With limited daylight, you have to take the chance to savour the low winter sun at midday ☺️ #Lerwick #JimmyPerez #Lifeat60North

Long winter shadow laid out on a road through a Shetland landscape with houses on a hill in the distance

Had a walk out today at noon 🕛 and amused myself for a moment by creating possibly the longest shadow of the year? 🤩 At a rough guess, possibly 30 yards long 😯 #Shetland #WinterSolstice #Lifeat60North

The sun sets behind a tall building, reflected on water in the foreground.

Fading midday light at the museum by Hay’s Dock, Lerwick today. At noon 🕛 in December the sun is barely seven degrees above the horizon and there’s less than six hours of daylight in #Shetland 🌅 #LifeAt60North #WinterSolstice

Settled weather and blue skies across #Shetland today for a midday wander along the south end of #Lerwick. When there’s barely six hours of daylight in December, it’s essential to get out while the sun is shining ☀️ #LifeAt60North #RNLI #JimmyPerez

After yesterday's storm there's still plenty of energy in the seas around #Shetland today but also light winds and clear skies for a stunning Scatness sunset at 3.15pm 🌅 #Winter #Lifeat60North

After the recent cold snap, we’ll get into double figures tomorrow as #StormBert approaches #Shetland. The recent snow will soon be gone. It caused some disruption but it was a beautiful reminder of the season ❄️ #LifeAt60North #Winter
