Incredible scenes as we slide from January into February and realise that yet again it's Monday night (and it's 5pm) so it MUST be time for Episode 4 of 'How light is it in
#Orkney
at 5pm this week?' We are NOT making this up. IT REALLY IS THIS LIGHT 💡

'Kirkwall Fair.' (1888) Although Arthur Melville was not regarded as one of the Glasgow Boys, he was seen by them to be a kindred spirit. A year after painting this work on Orkney, he left Edinburgh and settled in London, although he often returned to Scotland to paint.

If X equals bluesky Then I'll give it a try, Many followers have defected And now I have reconnected. Hoping for better days ahead Working from my garden shed, Inspiration is all I need Then all my followers will take heed. Not quite a sonnet.
