From Longhopes the trip down to Wick across to the mainland and the Pentland Firth can be a bit of a challenge but we seemed to hit it right which enabled us to sail near to the Island of Stroma. And by special request from John Williams we photographed it from all angles but this was the best we could do - the boat was bouncing around a bit. So John here is Stroma - a dark beautiful  place with a slight atmosphere of the mystical (bit like the wife then John!!)
