I had to practically beg my husband to go to Orkney but then he fell in love with the place and now we're talking about a third visit this coming fall.

One of my favorite places. The Ring of Brodgar on a sunny day. You hit the jackpot.

Thank you. No, they were total strangers - I think they give a bit of a tourist brochure look to that shot.

Thanks! Check out the young lady in this shot. She walked around the whole circle, touching each stone as she went and then stood in the centre with arms outstretched and face turned to the sun. She was either a druid wannabe or had read "Outlander" one too many times!
