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

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

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

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
