White Horses

The wind has been rising here pretty much all day. After a bit of stuff to do around the house, my beautiful fiancée and I took the dogs to Skaill. The wind and waves over the last little while have brought back the massive sandy beach that we like so much there, but it was no day for lingering on the beach. The strong wind was icy and driving thick splodges of sleety rain at us as we wandered along. We stopped briefly to snap some shots of the huge breakers rolling in to the bay, their crests being turned to plumes of spray by the fierce wind. A spectacular place to be, even on a miserable day.
