Shetland photos.

I think dramatic is a bit of an understatement!

 

Hello Stevie, you are probably correct and the weather was much better here today so I took this image.

 

Where exactly is that Jeff, just being nosey!

 

It's part of the view from where I reside.

 

I took this image in August of this year and it was a hot day, by Shetland standards anyway.

Goodness me Jeff!...How high are the cliffs just there?

 

The top of those cliffs are about 160 feet above sea level.

That is the Atlantic Ocean and it also throws rocks of many sizes up.

Thanks Jeff...Makes me want to get my boots on :-)

I have seen that you said you have traced your ancestry back to it's Viking roots...Is it at all possible to trace back to Scandinavia at all?
I just don't know what is possible nowadays with DNA stuff?
Please forgive me if you have said all or any of this before,

Best wishes, pb

 

Yes, Iceland is one place that I would like to visit.

Science is always evolving so who knows what might become possible.

This video has a song in Shetland Norn/Old Norse, which was our language until about 1800, many old words are still in daily use in the Shetlandic dialect, but modernity is gradually eroding the dialect.



The second video is for the full version.
